PREFACE. 


Seripturis sanctis ubi et uerborum ordo mysterium est. 
Higroy., Ep. lvii. 


THE present volume contains the text of the Evangelion da- 
Mepharreshe, or Old Syriac Version of the Four Gospels, with such 
variants as I have been able to collect and with literal translations of 
text and variants into English. In the second volume I have described 
the mss at length, discussed the grammatical style of the version, 
examined the relation of the Evangelion da-Mepharreshe to the Peshitta 
and to the Diatessaron of Tatian, and attempted to estimate its 
place and value in the textual criticism of the Gospels. In this Preface 
I only wish to say a few words in explanation of the plan and arrange- 
ment of the present volume and in defence of the method of translation 
which I have adopted. 

First of all I must express my lasting regret that the name of the 
late Professor Bensly should appear in the Dedication instead of on the 
Title-Page. Professor Bensly had been for many years contemplating a 
new issue of the ‘Curetonian Gospels,’ and on the discovery of the Sinai 
Ms it seemed as if the man most fitted for the work of preparing a 
critical edition of our greatly increased material was on the spot and 
ready to do it. But to the grief of all students of Oriental Literature 
he died immediately after his return from Sinai in 1893, and when the 
present Dean of Westminster entrusted me with the work which 
Professor Bensly had undertaken for Texts and Studies I found that 
I had to begin from the very beginning. Of Professor Bensly’s long 
projected edition of the ‘Curetonian’ nothmg tangible remained after 
his death but his copy of Cureton’s edition containing an incomplete 
recollation of the ms. There were no notes, no specimens of a new 
translation, no sketches of Prolegomena. Bensly’s unrivalled familiarity 
with Syriac literature and the methods of Syriac translators would have

given his edition, had he lived to complete but a portion of it, a unique 
value. But so far as we can discover, this store of learning perished 
with him. It was therefore impossible to place his name on the title- 
page of this book ; but in dedicating it to his memory I wish to express 
the hope that my work may have attained some measure of the 
thoroughness and accuracy which Biblical and Oriental scholars have so 
justly associated with his name. 

The reason that this book of mine does not after all appear among 
the Cambridge Teats and Studies is its size. Such books as Dr 
Abbott’s edition of Codex Usserianus or Mr Horner’s edition of the 
Bohairic Coptic, in which the Four Gospels are distributed into two 
volumes, are practically inconvenient for purposes of reference. It was 
important to place the English translation opposite the Syriac text, 
and to do this in the size of Texts and Studies would have resulted in 
a book of nearly a thousand pages, even if the Introduction was reserved, 
as here, for a second volume. The plan of incorporating this edition of 
Evangelion da-Mepharreshe into the Cambridge Series was therefore 
reluctantly abandoned, and I have to thank the generous enterprise of 
the Syndics of the University Press for undertaking it as a separate 
work. 

It was clear from the first that no attempt should be made to re- 
construct an ideal text. The need of Syriac and Biblical students is to 
have the evidence set before them in such a way that one may see at 
a glance what authorities are extant for any given passage and what 
reading our several authorities preserve. To print our two mss S and 
C in full would swell the bulk of the volume, already large, to un- 
manageable dimensions; moreover such a course would obscure the 
fundamental agreement of the two mss, which is as important a 
feature as their perpetual divergence. One of the two therefore had 
to be printed in full, with the other exhibited in the form of various 
readings, and the question arose which was to be promoted to the place 
of honour. 

In many ways it would have been more interesting to have printed 
S in full, with the variants of C in the notes, but I was advised by 
Dr Armitage Robinson and by the ever-regretted Professor Robertson 
Smith to adopt the opposite course. I feel sure they were right even 
now ; nine years ago, when the decision had to be made, the case was 
still clearer. In the first place there is no other readily available 


Preface. ix 


means of getting at the continuous text of C. Cureton’s edition has 
been long out of print, and it does not contain the Berlin leaves: 
I hope the text of Cis printed in this volume with sufficient accuracy 
to be and to remain the definite edition of the ‘Curetonian’ ms. But 
S was printed in full in 1894 (the “Syndics’ Edition”), and a glance 
at that book will shew that it is not very well suited to be the basis 
of an apparatus of variants. Since that date, it is true, our knowledge 
of the text of S has been greatly increased by the publication of Mrs 
Lewis's Some Pages (1896). The additional readings there supplied, 
together with the corrections published for the first time in this volume’, 
leave but a comparatively small harvest for the future decipherer of 
the Palimpsest to gather. But when I started on my work these 
subsidiary sources of information did not exist. 

When C fails us, as in the whole of 8. Mark, S is placed in the text. 
In any case it will be understood that the readings printed in the 
notes are of the same importance as those printed in the text. I have 
only aimed at collecting together the materials, not at a reconstruction 
of the original form of the Version. At the same time I ought to state 
at once my conviction, which I believe to be that of every other Syriac 
scholar, that S is on the whole a better representative of the Evangelion 
da-Mepharreshe than C, although there are not a few instances where 
S fails to maintain its habitual superiority. 

A few words must now be said about the translation. I venture 
to think that I need hardly apologise that the translation is in English. 
A reconstruction of the Greek text underlying the ‘Old Syriac’ would 
be most unsatisfactory, as can be seen from Baethgen’s attempt in 
Evangelienfragmente. It is unsatisfactory, because it seeks to establish 
what from the nature of things cannot be ascertained, vz. the continuous 
Greek text underlying the Syriac. Syriac is a language of very 
different genius to Greek, and the translator of the Hvangelion da- 
Mepharreshe was far more careful to reproduce the sense of the 
original than to express Greek idioms in a foreign tongue. This makes 
his work more natural and animated, while it does not seriously interfere 
with its value as a critical witness in matters of importance. But in 
many minor points the evidence of the Syriac is really ambiguous, and 


1 These corrections are incorporated into the text of S as here given and are also 
collected together in Appendix 11: they are about 300 in number. 


x Preface. 


in such cases to give a re-translation into Greek introduces an appear- 
ance of definiteness, where no such definiteness is justified. 

Similar arguments may be urged against a Latin rendering of the 
Syriac. A most important branch of the critical study of the Syriac 
is a comparison of its readings with the Latin Versions; for this 
purpose, the adoption of a particular Latin style or vocabulary in trans- 
lation would inevitably make the agreement of the Syriac and the 
Vulgate, or the Syriac and some branch of the ‘Old Latin,’ greater 
(or less) than the ascertainable facts actually warrant. 

I therefore decided upon an English translation, and here again a 
choice of alternatives had to be made. The first and most obvious 
course was to take either the Authorized Version of 1611 or the 
Revised Version of 1881 as a basis, and make only such changes as 
faithfulness demanded. The chief objection to this method is the 
same that has been urged against a Greek or Latin rendering, that it 
gives an appearance of agreement in detail when perhaps no agreement 
exists: moreover the inevitable occasional disagreement between a 
faithful translation executed on these principles and the English Bible 
in either form would produce a patchwork, open to more objection than 
the course I have actually followed. Another method would have been 
to try and copy the freedom of the Hvangelion da-Mepharreshe itself, 
to give an English rendering as idiomatic and nervous as the Syriac. 
The first and most decisive reason for not attempting this lies in the 
certainty of failure. The combination of scholarship and literary gift 
which would be required could scarcely be united in a single individual. 
But even if it were well done, we may fairly ask what use would such 
a translation serve? For purposes of edification indeed it might be 
valuable. It might shew to the English reader how well the Evangelion 
da-Mepharreshe had caught the fresh and unaffected spirit of the 
Gospel story. But people do not read the translation of a Syriac 
Version for purposes of edification. They require a translation as an 
aid in reading the Syriac text, or in comparing the text attested by 
the Syriac with other critical authorities. 

A knowledge of the letter rather than of the spirit is what is 
required by the readers of an ancient Biblical translation, and it is this 
that I have attempted to supply. I have tried to be as pedantically 
literal as possible, to render the same Syriac word by the same English 
word, and to make a distinction in the English where a distinction 8 


Preface. Pa 


made in the Syriac, whatever the underlying Greek may have been. 
The distinctions made in the Greek are not always represented in the 
Syriac, although on the other hand the Syriac sometimes makes a 
distinction where there is none in the Greek. For example, dyopd and 
mhareta are represented indifferently in Syriac by shdqd, i.e. ‘street’ 
or ‘bazaar,’ consequently we cannot tell whether the Syriac supports 
ayopais or mharefats in Mk vi 56. On the other hand S in Matt vi $, 
and both S and C in Lk xiv 21, are careful to render pvyy by the 
special term sh’gdqd, i.e. ‘lane.’ Again, the Syriac shanneq corre- 
sponds exactly to Bacavifew ‘to torment, and accordingly we find 
by we Bacavioyns in Matt viii 29 and Lk viii 28 appropriately rendered 
by ld @shann’qan, as in the Peshitta. But in Mk ¥ 7, a passage 
absolutely parallel to the others, S has /d Oeshtannaéd bi, a rendering 
which gives the same sense, but uses another verb. There is no trace 
of any various reading in the Greek, but the variation in the Syriac is 
interesting from the light it throws upon the methods of the translator : 
I have therefore tried to mark the difference in the English rendering 
of Mk v 7 by using ‘ torture me not,’ instead of ‘torment me not’ as in 
the parallels. 

The examples quoted above are of importance only as they help us 
to gauge the standard of accuracy aimed at by the Syriac Version, but 
occasionally distinctions are introduced or obliterated which have some 
exegetical significance. In such cases it becomes especially necessary to 
reproduce the peculiarities of the Syriac in our English rendering. 
Thus the somewhat rare word eO‘azzaz ‘to be excited,’ properly used 
of water stirred up by a storm, and then by a metaphor applied to 
personal feeling, occurs three times, and in each case it corresponds to a 
different Greek word. In Lk xxii 59 it is used of the indignation of 
S. Peter’s interlocutor (duwoxvpitero), in Mk viii 12 it is used of our 
Lord’s indignation at the crass materialism of the Pharisees (ava- 
atevdéas); while in Joh xi 33, 38 it is used of His emotion at the grave 
of Lazarus (€veBpipyoaro, éuBpimcdpevos). It seems therefore that the 
translator understood this emotion as indignation against the murmurs 
of the Jews rather than as expressing some inner conflict, but in any 
case it is clear that the Syriac word should be translated in all three 
passages by the same expression in English. 

Again, the Holy Spirit, in the Evangelion da-Mepharreshe as 
in the Peshitta, is commonly called Réhd 8’ Quéshd, lit. “Spirit of 


xii Preface. 


Holiness.” But in Mk xiii 11, Lk ii 25, 26, xi 13 (C), Joh xx 22, we find 
70004 Qaddishtd. We ave scarcely justified in assuming that the two 
expressions were regarded as equivalent in Syriac because they equally 
represent [76] mvedua [70] dyov in Greek. But when we look at the 
context in which Réhd qaddishtd occurs, especially Lk 1 26 which 
speaks of “that Rihd qaddishtd,” it is evident that it is definitely 
not used in the sense of a Divine Hypostasis. I have retained “the 
Holy Spirit” as on the whole the best equivalent for 4 & Qudsha ; 
but this would be misleading for Réhd qaddishtd, which I have 
uniformly rendered ‘a holy Spirit.’ I did not adopt “the Spirit of 
Holiness” for Rihd 8’ Quéshd, because I venture to think that also 
would have conveyed a wrong idea. Quédshd is much nearer sanctum 
than sanctitas: in Matt iv 5 M’Sina@ QuSshd does not mean what 
“(City of Holiness” would mean in English, but simply and solely 7 ayia 
modus, as in the Greek. 

To sum up, my aim in the translation has been to give the reader 
who knows little or no Syriac such help as will enable him, by the 
exercise of reasonable care and intelligence, to understand the meaning 
of the Syriac on the opposite page, and also to compare the renderings 
of this Version in any given passage with its renderings elsewhere. 
To use the translation of a text for critical purposes instead of the 
original is always somewhat unsafe, but I have endeavoured to diminish 
the risk as much as possible. In this matter I cannot hope to please : 
I shall be content if my rendering is found to be serviceable. 

It only remains to express my very warm thanks for the kind help 
which has been extended to me from various quarters during the 
preparation of this work. Mr T, R. Glover, of 8. John’s College, gave 
me a line-for-line transcript of the three Berlin leaves of Codex C, which 
cleared up several doubtful points not ascertainable from Wright's 
printed text. Mrs Lewis was good enough during her last visit in 
1902 to examine the Sinai Palimpsest for me in several passages where 
the photograph was illegible. The two illustrations of the Ms (see 
vol. ii, pp. 28, 257) are made from her photographs, for one of which 
she kindly lent the original film. It cannot be out of place here to 
repeat what I have said on p. 18, that it is by her enterprise and 
liberality in presenting complete sets of her photographs to the 
Cambridge University Library that we are able satisfactorily to control 
the original transcripts of the decipherers of the Palimpsest. To 


Preface. xili 


Mrs Pattrick, of Cambridge, I am indebted for the excellent likeness 
of her father, Dr Cureton. Dr G. Mercati, of the Vatican Library, 
has more than once kindly verified references to the reading of mss 
in the Vatican, and to the ever-ready kindness of Prof. Ignazio Guidi 
I owe an accurate transcript of the Genealogy in the Borgian ms of 
the Arabic Diatessaron (Ciasca’s Cod. B). The chapter on the linguistic 
characteristics of the Old Syriac version (vol. ii, chap. ii) was read 
throughout by my friend Professor R. H. Kennett, who thereby did the 
book a service which is but inadequately represented by the Notes 
actually signed with his initials. Finally, I should be indeed ungrateful 
if I did not shew my appreciation of the intelligence and skill of the 
Compositors and Readers of the Cambridge University Press. Only 
those who have practical experience of the difficulties of setting up 
Notes, partly written in English which runs one way, and partly in 
Syriac which runs the other, can have any idea of the difficulties which 
had to be surmounted both in composition and in correction.

Eleazar. Eleazar begat Matthan. Matthan begat Jacob. Jacob 
begat Joseph, him to whom was betrothed Mary the Virgin, she 
who bare Jesus the Messiah.‘ 


All the generations therefore from Abraham even unto David 


are fourteen generations ; and from David even unto the captivity 
of Babylon fourteen generations ; and from the captivity of Babylon 
unto the Messiah fourteen generations. 

Now the birth of the Messiah was thus: When Mary his mother 
was betrothed to Joseph, tbefore evert+ they drew near one to the 
other, she was found with child of the Holy Spirit. Now Joseph, 
because he was an upright man, was not willing that he should expose 
Mary and had meditated that quietly he should divorce her. Now 
when he meditated these things there appeared to him, to Joseph, an 
angel of the Lorp in a vision of the night and said to him: “Joseph 
son of David, fear not to take Mary thy betrothed, for that which 
is being born from her is conceived from the Holy Spirit. Now 
she will bear thee a son, and his name shall be called Jesus, for 
he shall save alive the world from its sins.” Now this that came to 
pass happened that that might be fulfilled which was said by the 
Lorp through the mouth of Isaiah the prophet who had said: “Lo,

us, 


Now when Joseph arose from his sleep, he did as the angel of the 
Lorp commanded him, and he took Mary, and purely was dwelling 
with her until she bare the son ; and she called his name Jesus. 

And when Jesus was born in Beth Lehem of Judah in the days 
of Herod the king, lo, Magians came from the east to Jerusalem. 
And they say: “Where is the king of the Jews that hath been born ? 
For we ourselves have seen his star in the east, and have come to 
worship him.” 

Now when Herod the king heard he was troubled, and all 
Jerusalem with him, and he gathered together all the chief priests 
and scribes of the people and said to them: “Where is the Messiah 
born?” They say to him: “In Beth Lehem of Judah, for thus it 
is written in the prophet: ‘Thou also, Beth Lehem of Judah, art 
not less than the kingdom of Judah ; for from thee shall go forth the 
king that shall tend my people Israel.” Then Herod secretly called 
those Magians, and was enquiring of them that he might know at what 
time the star appeared to them. And he sent them to Beth Lehem, 
and said to them: “Go enquire about this same lad eagerly, and what 
time ye have found him, come and shew me, that I may go myself 
also and worship him.” Now they, when they received command 
from the king, went away, and there appeared to them that star 
which they had seen in the east going before them, until it came 
and stood over where the lad was. Now they, when they saw the 
star, rejoiced with a great joy, and entered the house and saw the 
lad: with Mary his mother, and fell down and worshipped him, and

opened their treasures and offered him an offering, gold and myrrh 
and frankincense. And it appeared to them in a vision that they 
should not return unto Herod, and they by another road went away 
to their own country. And after their visit the angel of the Lorp 
appeared to Joseph in a dream and said to him: “Arise, take up 
the lad and his mother and flee to Egypt, and there be until I 
say to thee, because Herod is about to seek for the lad, so that he 
may destroy him.” 

Now Joseph arose and took up the lad and his mother by night 
and went away to Egypt, and he was there until Herod the king died, 
that that might be fulfilled which was said by the Lorp through the 
prophet, who had said “From Egypt I have called my son.” 

Then Herod, when he saw that those Magians had mocked at 
him, was furious exceedingly, and sent and killed all the lads that 
were in Beth Lehem and in all its borders, from two years old and 
under, according to the time that these Magians said to him. 
Then was accomplished the word which Jeremiah the prophet said : 
“A voice was heard in Ramtha, wailing and weeping and much 
groaning, the voice of Rachel who weepeth over her sons and will 
not be comforted, because they are not!” Now when Herod the 
king was dead there appeared to Joseph in Egypt the angel of the 
Lorp in a dream, and said to him: “Arise, take the lad and his

were seeking the lad’s life to snatch away‘.” Now he arose and 
took the lad and his mother, and came to the land of Israel. 

Now when Joseph heard that Archelaus was king in Judaea in 
the room of Herod his father, he feared to go thither, and it appeared 
to him in a vision that he should go to the country of Galilee; and 
he came thither and was dwelling in a certain city called Nazareth, 
and the word was fulfilled that was spoken by the prophet, that he 
should be called a Nazarene. 

And in those days came John the Baptist, and was preaching 
in the wilderness of Judaea and saying “Repent, because the king- 
dom of heaven hath drawn nigh.” For this is he of whom it is 
written in Isaiah the prophet, who had said: “A voice that calleth 
in the wilderness, ‘Make ready a way for the Lorp, and direct the 
paths of our God!’” Now John was clad with clothing of camels’ 
wool, and was girt with a thong upon his loins, and his meat was 
locusts and honey of the waste. Then were coming unto him the 
men of Jerusalem and all Judaea and all the other side round 
about the river Jordan, and he was baptizing them in the river 
Jordan, each one confessing their sins. Now when he saw publicans 
aud Pharisees and Sadducees coming to his baptism, he said to 
them : “ Offspring of vipers, who is it hath shewed you to flee from

Abraham,’ for I say to you that God is able from these stones to 
raise up sons to Abraham.™ And lo, the axe hath arrived at the root 
of the trees ; Severy tree therefore that bringeth not forth good fruits 
is hewn down and goeth unto the fire’ Now I, lo, I baptize 
you with water to repentance, but the one which cometh after me 
is stronger than IJ, and I am not worthy to take up his shoes; he 
shall baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire, who holdeth a 
fan in his hand and cleanseth his threshingfloor, and the wheat 
he storeth into his barns, and the chaff he burneth with fire 
unquenchable.” 

Then came Jesus from Galilee to the Jordan to John that he 
might baptize him. And John forbad him and said to him: “I am 
fit that thou shouldest baptize me, and thou unto me hast come?” 
Jesus saith to him: “Suffer ?6 at present, because thus it behoves 
us to fulfil all uprightness.” Then he suffered him to be baptized. 
And Jesus had been baptized; and when he was baptized, in the same 
hour that Jesus came up from the water, lo, the heavens were 
opened, and he saw the Spirit of God that came down as a dove 
and rested upon him. And a voice was heard from heaven, saying 
to him: “Thou art my son and my beloved in whom I have been 


pleased.” Then Jesus was led by the Holy Spirit into the wilderness,

to be tempted by Satan, and after forty days that he was fasting he 
hungered. And he that tempteth drew near unto him, and said to 
him : “If thou be the son of God, say that these stones become bread.” 
Jesus answered and said to him: “It is written ‘Not by bread alone 
liveth man, but by every utterance that goeth forth from the mouth 
of the Lorp.” Then the Accuser took him and brought him to the 
Holy City, and made him stand upon the corner of the Temple, 
and said to him: “If thou be the son of God, cast thyself down ; 
for it is written ‘To his angels he shall command concerning thee, 
that on their arms they should bear thee up, that thou shouldest never 
dash with thy foot against a stone’” Again Jesus said to him: “It 
is written ‘Thou shalt not tempt thy Lord and thy God.” Again 
the Accuser took him to the hill which is exceeding high, and 
shewed him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory, and said 
to him: “These all will I give to thee, if so be that thou wilt fall 
down and worship before me.” Then Jesus said to him: “Get thee 
behind me, Satan; for it is written ‘Thy Lord thy God thou shalt 
worship, and him alone shalt thou serve.” Then the Accuser left 
him for a time, ‘and lo, angels drew near and were serving Jesus.4

nahum, which is by the sea side in the border of Zebulun and of 
Naphtali, that that might be fulfilled which was said through Isaiah 
the prophet, who had said: “The land of Zebulun and the land of 
Naphtali, the way of the sea, beyond the river Jordan, Galilee of 
the peoples ; the people that was sitting in darkness have seen a 
great light, Sand those that were sitting in the shadows of death,‘ 
a great light hath risen upon them.” 

From then Jesus began to preach and to say: “The kingdom 
of heaven hath drawn nigh.” And when our Lord was walking 
by the side of the lake of Galilee he saw two brothers, Simon 
called Kepha and Andrew his brother, casting their nets into the 
sea, because they were fishers. Jesus saith to them: “Come after 
me and I will make you fishers of men.” And they in the same 
hour left their nets and went after him. 

And when he removed thence he saw two other brothers, James 
and John his brother, sons of Zebedee, while they were sitting in the 
boat with Zebedee their father and mending their nets. And Jesus 
called them; and they in the same hour left their nets and went

healing all torments and all infirmities in the people. And the tale of 
him was heard in all Syria; and they brought to him all those that 
were ill and those that were infirm with stubborn infirmities and 
with hateful torments and many that were struck with palsies and 
lunatics, and he—on each one of them he was laying his hand and 
healing them all. And there went after him great multitudes from 
Galilee and from the Ten Cities and from Jerusalem and from Judeea 
and from beyond Jordan. Now when he saw the multitudes he went 
up and sat in the hill, and his disciples drew near unto him, and 
he opened his mouth and was teaching them and saying : 

“SHappy is it for the poor in their spirit, that theirs is the 
kingdom of heaven 7 

“Happy is it for the lowly, that they shall inherit the earth ! 

“Happy is it for the mourners, that they shall be comforted ! 

“Happy is it for them that hunger and thirst after righteousness, 
that they shall be satisfied !

“Happy is it for you what time men persecute you and reproach

great in heaven, for so were your fathers persecuting the prophets

away ‘one Jéd-letter or one corner shall not pass away from the 
law till everything come to pass.1 Every one that shall remit there- 
fore one of these little commandments, and shall teach so to men, 
shall be called less in the kingdom of heaven; but every one that 
shall do and teach them, he shall be called great in the kingdom 
of heaven. For I say to you Except your righteousness shall 
abound more than the scribes and the Pharisees, ye shall not enter 
into the kingdom of heaven. Ye have heard that it was said to 
them of old time ‘Thou shalt not kill; and whosoever shall kill 
shall be condemned in judgement.’ But I say to you Whosoever 
shall be wroth with his brother without cause shall be condemned to 
judgement ; and he that shall say to his brother ‘Raca’ shall be 
condemned to the synagogue; and whosoever shall say to his brother 
‘Fool’ shall be condemned to the Gehenna of fire. 

“SWhensoever therefore thou offerest thy offering before the 
altar, and there thou shalt recollect that thy brother hath aught 
against thee of enmity, leave thy offering there before the altar, 
and go first be reconciled with thy brother, and then come and 
offer thy offering."

and the judge deliver thee up to the officer, and thou fall into 
prison—and amen, I say to thee Thou wilt not go forth from 
thence, till thou give the last mite. 

“Ye have heard that it was said to them of old time ‘Thou 
shalt not commit adultery.’ But I say to you Whosoever seeth a 
woman and longeth for her hath committed adultery with her in 
his heart. But if thy right eye offend thee pluck ¥? out and throw 
it from thee, for it is profitable for thee that thy one member should 
perish, and not all thy body go to Gehenna. And if thy right hand 
offend thee cut 2 off and throw it from thee, for it is profitable for 
thee that one of thy members should perish, and not all thy body 
go to Gehenna. It hath been said ‘He that dismisseth his wife 
shall give her a letter of divorce’. But I say to you He that 
dismisseth his wife concerning whom there hath not been alleged 
adultery, he causeth her to commit adultery; and he that taketh 
up a divorced woman doth indeed commit adultery. 

“Again ye have heard that it hath been said to them of old time: 
‘sThou shalt not swear an oath of falsehood,” but shalt give to the 
Lorp thy oath? But I say to you ‘Ye your own selves shall 
not swear :'—Snot by the heavens, because they are the throne of 
God; nor by the earth, because it is the footstool that ¢s under 
his feet; nor by Jerusalem, because it is the city of the great 
King; nor yet by thy head shalt thou swear, because thou canst 
not make in it one single lock black or white. But your word 
shall be Yea, yea, and Nay, nay; now whatsoever is more than 


these is from the Evil One.7

8. MATTHEW ¥, VI 00 


“Ye have heard that it hath been said ‘Eye for eye, and tooth 
for tooth’ But I say to you Ye shall not stand up against the 
Evil One, but She that smiteth thee on thy cheek, offer him the 
other ; and he that willeth to go to law with thee and take away 
thy coat, let him take away thy cloak also; and he that saith to thee 
that thou shouldest go with him a mile, go with him two others.4 
And he that asketh thee—give to him, and he that would borrow 
from thee—forbid him not. Ye have heard that it hath been said 
to them of old time ‘Love thy neighbour and hate thine enemy.’ 
But I say to you ‘Be loving to your enemies, and pray for those 
that persecute you," so that ye may become the sons of your Father 
in heaven, he that maketh his sun to rise on the good and on the 
evil, and sendeth down his rain on the upright and on the wicked. 
‘For if ye be loving to them that are loving to you what is your 
reward? For so even the toll-gatherers do.’ And if ye greet your 
brethren only, what is your kindness? Nay, do not the pagans 
do so? 

“Become therefore perfect, as your Father in heaven is perfect. 


Beware that ye do not your gift before men, so that ye may be

seen by them, else ye have no reward with your Father in heaven. 
Whensoever therefore thou doest alms, do not blow a trumpet before 
thee, as the respecters of persons do in the synagogues and in the 
streets, so that they may be praised by men; amen, I say to you 
that they have received their reward. But thou, what ééme thou 
doest alms, let not thy left-hand know what thy right-hand doeth, 
that thy alms may be in secret, and thy Father that seeth in secret 
will repay thee. And what time thou prayest, be not as those 
respecters of persons, that love to stand in the synagogues and 
in the corners of the streets to pray, that they may be seen by 
men: I say to you that they have received their reward. But thou, 
whensoever thou prayest, Senter thou into the inner chamber, and 
shut the door in thy face and pray to thy Father in secret, and 
thy Father that seeth in secret will repay thee.7 

“ And whensoever ye pray, do not be babbling as the respecters of 
persons, for they hope that by much speaking they are heard. 
Be not therefore like to them, for ‘your Father knoweth what is 
required for you before ever ye ask it.1 But thus be praying: 


SOur Father in heaven, thy name be hallowed. Thy kingdom come.‘

also may forgive our debtors.1 And bring us not into temptation, 
But deliver us from the Evil One. Because thine is the kingdom 
and the glory, For ever and ever Amen. 

“For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your Father also in 
heaven will forgive you ; Sbut if ye yourselves forgive not men their 
trespasses, neither will the Father forgive you your trespasses.7 

“ And whensoever ye fast, do not be as ‘the respecters of persons, 
that make gloomy their faces,’ that they may be seen by men that 
they are indeed fasting—and amen, I say to you that they have 
received their reward. But thou, whensoever thou dost fast, wash thy 
face and anoint thy head, that thou be not seen by men that thou art 
indeed fasting, but by thy Father that knoweth in secret, and the 
Father that seeth in secret shall repay thee. SLay not up for 
yourselves treasure in the earth, where the moth falleth and 
corrupteth, and where thieves break through and thieve. But lay 
up for yourselves treasure in heaven, where no moth corrupteth,

will be light; but if thine eye be evil, thy whole body also is dark. 
If therefore the light in thee is dark, thy darkness—how great it 
will be! 

“No man can serve two lords; else the one he will hate and the 
other he will love, or the one he will endure and the other he will 
despise: ye cannot serve God and mammon. Therefore I say to 
you Be not anxious for your life what ye shall eat, nor for your 
bodies wherewith ye shall be clothed ; for the life is more than the 
food, and the body than the clothing. Look at the birds of the 
heaven that they sow not nor reap nor store up, and your 
Father in heaven nourisheth them; are ye not therefore more 
than they? But which of you can add unto his stature one cubit, 
that about clothing ye are anxious? See the lilies of the plain 
how they grow, that they spin not nor toil—and amen, I say to 
you that not even Solomon in all his glory was covered like them. 
But if the grass of the field that to-day is, and to-morrow is plucked 
up and falleth into the furnace, God doth clothe, Show much more 
therefore over you will he be careful, O lacking in faith?" Be not 
therefore anxious and say ‘What shall we eat and what shall we 
drink, and wherewith shall we be covered?’ For all these things 
the peoples of the earth seek after, for your Father doth know 
that for you also these things are required. But ye, seek ye first the 
kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things shall be 
added to you. ‘Be not therefore anxious for to-morrow, because to- 


morrow for its own is anxious.“ Sufficient for the day is its evil. 





24 ‘For no human being can serve two dominions’ A else] see 
Mt vi 1 and Introd. vol. 11 26, 30 Cf Thos: Look at the ravens and 
consider the fowl of the heaven, that (they) neither sow nor reap, and God 


nourisheth them: “how much therefore... (The italicised words come from 


Lk xii 24) 33 Cf A105: ‘Let us seek his kingdom and his righteous- 
ness, that we may receive on earth the increase’ 34 therefore]

S. MATTHEW 1 35 


Judge not, that ye be not judged. ‘For with what judgement 
ye judge ye are judged,” and with the measure that ye mete it 
is meted to you. Now what is the mote that in thy brother's eye 
thou dost see, and the beam that is in thine eye thou dost not 
examine? Or how canst thou say to thy brother, ‘Let me put 
forth the mote from thine eye,’ for lo, in thine own eye a beam is 
set? Thou respecter of persons! put forth first the beam from 
thine eye, and then it will be approved for thee to put forth the 
mote from thy brother’s eye. 

“Give not a holy thing to dogs, neither cast pearls before 
swine, that they may not trample on them with their feet, and 
return and rend you. ‘Ask, and ye shall receive; and seek, and 
ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened to you." ‘For 
whosoever asketh receiveth, and he that seeketh findeth, and he 
that knocketh—it is opened to him.* For which of you whose son 
shall ask for bread, will he hand him a stone? Or if for a fish he 
shall ask will he hand him a serpent? If therefore ye that are evil, 
know how to give good gifts to your sons, how much rather your 
Father in heaven /ioweth how to give good things to those that 
ask him. Everything therefore that ye would that men should do 
to you, be ye doing to them; for this is the law and the prophets. 
Enter by the strait gate, because wide is the gate and roomy the 
way that leadeth to destruction, and many there be that go therein. 
How strait the gate and narrow the way that leadeth unto life, and 
few are they which find it! 





2 For] om. A ye shall be judged A 6 Of Habib (asp 82): ‘It is 
written for us that we should not give a holy ¢hing to dogs, and not cast 


pearls before swine’ 7 ye shall receive] it shall be given to you Thos

truth 18 strait’ Addai 9, and ‘They (the meek) journey and walk in the

“Keep yourselves from prophets of falsehood, ‘which come unto 
you in lambs’ clothing, and within they are ravening wolves.) From 
their fruits therefore ye shall recognise them ; ‘for they do not pluck 
from thorns grapes, nor figs from briers. ‘Every good tree bringeth 
forth good fruits, and the evil tree bringeth forth evil fruits. The 
good tree cannot bring forth evil fruits, neither can the evil tree 
bring forth good fruits ; every tree therefore that bringeth not forth 
good fruits is hewn down and falleth into the fire. From their 
fruits therefore ye shall recognise them. 

“Not every one therefore that shall say unto me ‘My Lord, my 
Lord, entereth into the kingdom of heaven; but he which doeth the 
will of my Father which 28 in heaven, he shall enter into the 
kingdom of heaven. For many will say to me in that day, ‘Our 
Lord, our Lord, in thy name have we not eaten and drunken, and 
in thy name prophesied, and in thy name cast out devils, and in 
thy name done many mighty works?’ Then I shall say to them 
Never have I known you; go ye away from me, doers of wickedness. 

“every one that heareth these my words and doeth them, I will 
liken him to a wise man, that built his house on the rock, and the 
rain came down and the rivers came, and the winds blew and were 
dashed against that same house and it fell not, because its foundations 
on the rock were laid. And every one that heareth these my words 
and doeth them not, shall be likened to a foolish man, that built 
his house upon the sand, and the rain came down and the rivers 
came, and the winds blew and were dashed against that same house 


and it fell, and its fall was great.”

$. MATTHEW VII, VIII 39 


And when Jesus finished these his words, the multitudes were 
astonished at his teaching, for as one authorised he was teaching 
them, and not as their scribes and the Pharisees. And when he 
came down from the hill, great multitudes were coming after him, 
And lo, a certain man, a leper, came aud fell down and worshipped 
him, and said to him “My Lord, if thou wilt thou canst cleanse 
me.’ And Jesus stretched out Shis hand and touched him, and said 
to him: “TI will, be thou cleansed.” And in the same hour his leprosy 
was cleansed from him. And Jesus said to him: “ Beware lest 
thou say ܐ‎ to any man, but go shew thyself to the priests, and 
offer an offering as Moses commanded, that it should be for them 
for witness.” 

After these things, when he entered Kapharnahum, there drew near 
to him a certain centurion, and was beseeching him and entreating 
him and saying: “My slave is paralysed and lying down in the 
house in great torment.” Jesus saith to him “I will come and 
heal him.” The centurion answered and said to him: “My Lord, I 
am not worthy that thou shouldest enter under my dwelling, but only 
Ssay with a word and my lad will be healed. For I also am a man 
under authority, and I have authority myself also, and there are 
soldiers under my hand; and I say to this one ‘Go, and he goeth, 
and to another ‘Come, and he cometh, and to my slave I say ‘Do 
so much, and he doeth 76.7 Now when Jesus heard he wondered,

S. MATTHEW VIII 41 


not even in any one of the House of Israel have I found aught 
like this faith. But I say to you, that many shall come from 
the East and from the West, and shall sit down fo meat. with 
Abraham and Isaac and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven, and the 
sons of the kingdom shall go forth into the outer darkness; there 
shall be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth!” Then said Jesus 
to that centurion : “Go, as thou hast believed it shall be unto thee ;” 
and in the same hour his lad was healed. 

And Jesus came to the house of Simon Kepha, and he saw 
his mother-in-law lying down and a fever holding her. And he 
touched her hand, and in the same hour the fever left her, and she 
arose and was serving them. 

Now at sunset they brought near before him all those that had 
devils and he cast them out by his word, and those that were ill 
he healed, that that might be fulfilled which was said by the mouth 
of Isaiah the prophet, who had said “He shall take our pains and 
shall bear our infirmities.” 

Now when Jesus saw the great multitude that was round him, 
he commanded his disciples that they should go away to the other 
side yonder. And a certain scribe drew near and said to him: 
“Teacher, I will come after thee wherever thou goest.” Jesus saith 
to him: “The foxes—they have dens, and the birds of the heaven a 
dwelling ; but the Son of Man, She hath not where to rest his head.’ 
Now another of the disciples said to him: “My Lord, permit me first 
to go and bury my father and I will come.” Jesus saith to him: 


“SLeave the dead to bury their dead’ and thou come after me.’ 4

8. MATTHEW VIII, Ix 43 


| And our Lord went up into a boat and his disciples were coming 
after him, and there was a storm [of the sea, and the boat] was 
near to be broken in the waves. Now he was asleep; and_ his 
disciples drew near and awoke him, and say to him: “Our Lord, 
save our lives, because lo, we are perishing!” He saith [to them: 
“O lacking in faith] wherefore are ye fearful?” Then he arose and 
rebuked the wind and the sea and there was a great calm. But those 
folk were astonished and say: “Who is this, that the sea and the 
wind obey him?” 

And when he came to the country of the Gadarenes there met 
him two men on whom were devils ; and they were evil exceedingly, 
and they used to come forth from the graves, that no one could 
pass by that way. And they cried out with a loud voice, and say: 
“What have we to do with thee, Son of God? Hast thou come [hither 
before the time to torment us?” And a great herd of swine] was 
feeding beyond them, and those devils were beseeching him and 
saying “If thou dost cast us out, send us to that herd of swine.” 
He saith to them: “Go.” Now they went forth and entered into the 
swine, and all that herd ran to a steep place and fell into the midst 
of the sea. And the herdsmen fled and entered the city and declared 
everything that he did and those things concerning the devils. And 
all the city went forth to meet our Lord, and when they saw him 
they besought him that he would remove from their neighbourhood. 
[And he went up] to the boat and crossed over * * * [they brought 
to him] a paralytic lying down on a bed, and when our Lord saw 
their faith he said [to that] paralytic: “Be not [afraid,] * *” 


* * ®» 2 * * * * * * * he said 


to them: “What [think] ye evil in your heart? Which is the easier,

8. MATTHEW IX 45 


to say ‘Thy sins are forgiven thee,’ or to say ‘Arise and walk’? 
But that ye may know that the Son of Man hath authority on 
earth to forgive sins—” then said he to that paralytic—“ Arise, take 
up thy bed, and go to thy house!” And he arose and took up his 
bed and went to his house. And when the multitudes saw they 
were afraid, and they were glorifying God who gave this authority 
to men. 

And he removed from thence. And as our Lord passed by, he 
saw a certain man that was sitting at the toll-gatherers’ place, whose 
name was Matthew, and he said to him: “Come after me”; and he 
arose and came after him. And when [they were sitting at meat in 
the house many toll-gatherers and sinners had sat down to meat by] 
our Lord and by his disciples. Then when the Pharisees see ¥, they 
say to his disciples: [“ Wherefore with toll-gatherers and sinners] are 
ye eating [and drinking]?” Now he, when he heard, said: “The 
whole have no need of a physician, but they that are ill. But go, 
learn what is meant by ‘Mercy I seek and not sacrifice, ‘for I came 
not that I might call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.’* Then 
came the disciples of John, and say: “Why is it that we and the 
Pharisees fast eagerly, and thy disciples fast not?” Our Lord saith 
to them: “The sons of the bride-chamber cannot keep a time of 
mourning as long as the bridegroom is with them; but the days 
will come, that the bridegroom will be taken up from them, and 
then they will fast. 

“No man putteth a new patch on a worn-out garment, else the 
fulness of the new pulleth away the weakness of the worn-out part, 
and the rent becometh worse than the former one. Neither do they 
put new wine into worn-out wine-skins, else the wine teareth the 
wine-skins and the wine is spilt and the wine-skins perish ; but they 
put new wine into new wine-skins, and both are preserved.” Now 
when he was speaking with them, lo, a certain ruler of their 
synagogue came and fell down and worshipped him, and said: 





13 for] om. A*/, B°' (vid): after ‘to repentance’ A 455 goes on ‘ Because 
_..there was no need to the whole ones of a physician.’ The words ‘to 
repentance’ are not quoted in kL”

S. MATTHEW 1X 47 


“My daughter now hath died, but lay thy hand and she will live.” 
And our Lord arose and went with him, he and his disciples. 
And lo, a woman whose blood had been issuing for twelve years, 
and she came and touched the skirt of his cloak ; for she was saying 
within herself “Even if his garments I should touch, I should be 
healed.” Now he turned round to her and said to her: “* * my 
daughter, thy faith hath saved thee alive.” And from that hour the 
woman was made whole. And when our Lord came to the house 
of the ruler of the synagogue, and he saw the singers and the 
multitude that was making a noise, he said to them: “Remove ye 
yonder, for the girl hath not died, but is indeed sleeping.” Now 
they were laughing at him. But when he had put forth that 
multitude outside he came ard touched her hand, and straightway 
she arose. And this tale went forth in all that land. And when 
our Lord passed by, two blind men clave to him and cry out 
with a loud voice: “Have compassion on us, son of David!” And 
when he came to the house those blind men drew near to him. 
He saith to them: “Believe ye that I can do this?” They say to him: 
“Yea, our Lord, we believe.’ Then he touched their eyes, and said : 
“As ye have believed shall it be to you.” And in the same hour 
their eyes were opened ; and our Lord rebuked them, and said to 
them: “Lo, see that ye say € not to any man.” But they, when 
they went forth, published it to every one in that same land. And 
after they had gone forth they brought near to him a certain deaf mute 
that was devil-ridden, and when the devil had gone forth from him 
that deaf mute spake. And the multitudes were wondering and 
saying : “ Never has it been seen thus in the House of Israel.” 

And our Lord was walking in the cities and in the villages and 


was teaching in their synagogues and was preaching the gospel of the 





28 Gf A20: And when the blind man drew near to him, he saith to him, 
‘Believest thou that I can heal thee?’ That blind man saith to him, ‘Yea, 
my Lord, I believe.’ And his faith opened his eyes.

kingdom, and was healing every pain and every infirmity. Now when 
he saw the multitudes he had compassion upon them, in that they 
were weary and let loose as a flock that hath no shepherd. Then 
said he to his disciples: “The harvest 7s much, and the labourers 
few ; beseech ye therefore the Lord of the harvest that he should 
send forth labourers for his harvest.” And he called his Twelve, 
and gave them authority to cast out unclean spirits and to heal 
every pain and infirmity. 

And these are the names of his twelve disciples :—first $8Simon 
Kepha, and Andrew his brother, and James and John the sons of 
Zebedee, and Philip and Bartholomew and Thomas and Matthew 
the toll-gatherer and James the son of Halphaeus and Simon the 
Cananaean and Judas the son of James,1 and Judas Scariot who 
himself was the betrayer.1 And our Lord sent these his twelve 
disciples and commanded them and said to them: “In the way of 
the peoples ye shall not go, and into a town of the Samaritans ye 
shall not enter, but go to the flock that hath strayed from the House 
of Israel. And what téme ye go, preach and say: ‘The kingdom of 
heaven hath drawn nigh. Heal the infirm, raise the dead, cleanse 
the lepers and cast out the devils ; ‘freely ye have received, freely 
give.’ Get not for yourselves gold nor silver, nor even copper in 
your purses, and no wallet for the way and not two coats and no 
shoes and no staff, for the labourer is worthy of his food. Into 
whatever town ye enter, be asking who is worthy, and _ there 


be until ye go forth. And what time ye enter the house give

shall they call them? Be not therefore afraid of them, for there is 
nothing secret that shall not be revealed, nor aught concealed that 
shall not be known. That which I say to you in the darkness, say 
it yourselves in the light," and that which ye hear in your ears, 
preach on the roofs. And be not afraid of them that kill the body, 
but the soul they have not authority to kill; but be afraid rather 
of him who can cast body and soul into Gehenna. Two sparrows 
are sold for a farthing, and one of them apart from your Father 
falleth not on the earth ; and tevent the locks of your hair are all of 
them numbered. Be not therefore afraid, because ye are more than 
many sparrows. | ‘Every man therefore that shall confess me before 
men, I myself also will confess him before the Father in heaven ; 
and whosoever shall deny me before men, I myself also will deny 
him before my Father in heaven and before his angels. I have not 
come to lay tranquillity in the earth, but division of minds and a 
sword. For I have come to divide the son against his father, and 
the daughter against her mother, and the bride against her mother- 
in-law; and the enemies of a man shall be his household. 

“Now he that loveth his father or his mother more than me, 
he is not worthy of me; and he that loveth his son or his daughter 
more than me, he is not worthy of me. And every one that doth 
not take up his Cross and come after me is not worthy of me. 
For he that findeth his life shall lose it, and he that shall lose his 
life for my sake shall find it. He that receiveth you, me it is he 


receiveth ; and he that receiveth me, receiveth him that sent me.

He that receiveth a prophet in the name of a prophet taketh the 
reward of a prophet, and he that receiveth a righteous man in the 
name of a righteous man taketh the reward of a righteous man. 
And whosoever shall give to drink to one of these little ones a cup 
of cold water in the name of discipleship—amen, I say to you 
that his reward shall not perish.” 

And it came to pass when Jesus had finished commanding 8 
twelve disciples he removed from thence to teach and to preach in 
their cities. : 

Now John, when he heard in prison the deeds of Jesus, de- 
spatched his disciples and sent word to him: “Art thou he that 
cometh, or for another is it that we are waiting?” And Jesus 
answered and said to them: “Go and shew John that which ye 
see and that which ye hear ; for lo, the blind see and the lame walk 
and the lepers are cleansed and the deaf hear and the poor are 
sustained and the dead arise, and happy is it for him except he be 
offended in me!” 

Now after these went away Jesus had begun to say to the 
multitudes concerning John: “What went ye forth to the desert 
to see?—a reed that by the wind is shaken? But if not, what went 
ye forth to see?—a man that with soft garments is clothed? 
Lo, they that with soft ¢h/igs are clad are in kings’ houses. But 


if not, what went ye forth to see?—a prophet? Yea, I say to you,

that he is more than the prophets. This is he of whom it is written 
‘Lo, I send my messenger before thy countenance, that he may prepare 
a way before thee!’ Amen, I say to you There hath not arisen 
among them that are born of women one greater than Jobn the 
Baptist, but he that is little in the kingdom of heaven is greater 
than he. But from the days of John the Baptist even until now 
the kingdom of heaven is oppressed, and they that oppress it 
snatch it away. For all the prophets and the Law prophesied 
until John. And if ye wish to receive it, he is Elijah that is about 
to come ; he that hath ears to hear, let him hear. 

“Now to whom shall I liken this generation? It is like unto 
children that sit in the street and send word to their fellows, and 
say: ‘We have sung to you and ye have not danced, and we have 
wailed to you and ye have not lamented’ For there came unto 
you John neither eating nor drinking, and ye say: ‘A devil in 
him!’ And there came the Son of Man eating and drinking, and 
ye say: ‘Lo, a man who 78 an eater and a drinker and a friend of 
toll-gatherers and of sinners!’ And wisdom hath been justified from 
her sons.” 

Then began Jesus to reproach cities in which he shewed many 
mighty works and they repented not. And he said: “Woe to thee, 
Korazin! woe to thee, Beth Saida! for if in Tyre and in Sidon 
had happened the mighty works that have happened in you, then 
perchance in sackcloth and in ashes they had repented; therefore

day of judgement rather than for you. And thou, Kapharnahum! 
not unto heaven shalt thou be uplifted, but unto Sheol shalt thou 
go down; for if in Sodom had happened the mighty works that 
have happened in thee, it had been standing until to-day. Therefore 
I say that for the land of Sodom it shall be easy in the day of 
judgement rather than for thee.” 

Now at that time Jesus answered and said: “I give thanks to 
thee, Father, Lord of heaven and of earth, that thou hast kept secret 
these things from the wise and hast revealed them to children; 
yea, my Father, that so was the will before thee. ‘Everything hath 
been delivered unto me from my Father," and no one knoweth the 
Son save the Father, neither the Father save the Son, and he to 
whom the Son shall be willing to reveal £. 

“SCome unto me, all ye toilers and bearers of heavy burdens, 
and I will ease you.’ And bear my yoke upon you," and learn 
from me that I am easy and meek in my heart, and ye shall find 
ease for your souls. For my yoke is gentle and my burden light.” 

And at that time Jesus was walking on the sabbath in the 
cornfields, and his disciples were hungry, and they began pulling the 
ears of corn and rubbing then in their hands and eating. When the 
Pharisees saw them, they say to him: “Why are thy disciples doing 


that which is not lawful to do?” He saith to them: “Have ye not

8. MATTHEW XII 61 


read what David did when he was hungry and they that were with 
him, how he entered the house of God and ate of the Shewbread, 
that for him was not lawful to eat nor for them that were with him, 
but for the priests only? Or have ye not read in the Law that the 
priests in the Temple—they profane the sabbath, and are without 
sins? For I say to you Lo, a greater than the Temple is here ; 
and if ye had known what is meant by ‘Mercy I seek and not 
sacrifice,’ ye would not have condemned the innocent. For the Lord 
of the sabbath is the Son of Man.” 

And when he removed from thence and came to their synagogue, 
and lo, a certain man whose right hand was withered, and they were 
asking him and saying “If so be it were lawful on the sabbath-day 
to heal?” that they might be able to accuse him. He saith to them : 
“What man is there of you that hath a sheep and it fall into a pit on 
the sabbath-day and doth not draw and take it up? How much more 
therefore is a man than a sheep! Hence it is lawful on the sabbath 
to do well.” Then saith he to that man: “Stretch forth thy hand ;” 
and he stretched forth his hand and it was restored like its fellow. 

And when the Pharisees went forth they took against him counsel 
so that they might destroy him. But Jesus knew and removed from 
thence, and there went after him many folk, and he healed them 
all. And he rebuked them that they to no man should reveal him, 


that that might be fulfilled which was said by the mouth of Isaiah

the prophet, who had said “Lo, my slave in whom I have been 
pleased, and my beloved in whom my soul hath delighted ; my spirit 
will 1 put upon him, that he should preach judgement to the peoples. 
He shall not cry out nor strive, neither shall any man hear his voice 
in the street. The bruised reed shall not be broken and the lamp 
that smouldereth shall not be quenched, until he send forth the 
judgement for victory; and for his name the peoples shall hope.” 
Then they brought near before him a certain man that had a 
devil upon him and was blind and deaf, and he healed him and the 
deaf-mute spake and saw and heard. And all the multitudes were 
wondering, and were saying “Can then this be the son of David 2” 
But the Pharisees, when they heard, said: “This fellow doth not 
cast out devils but by Beelzebub the chief of the demons.” Now 
when he saw their mind he said to them: “Every kingdom that 
shall be divided against itself shall be desolated, and every house 
and city that shall be divided against itself shall not stand. And if 
Satan doth cast out Satan, against himself he is divided ; how 
therefore will his kingdom stand? And if I by Beelzebub cast out 
devils from your sons, your sons—by what do they cast them out? 
Therefore they shall be for you judges. But if I by the Spirit of 
God cast out devils, henceforth the kingdom of God hath drawn 
nigh upon you. For how can anyone enter the house of the strong 
man and spoil his things, except first he bind the strong man 


himself, and then spoil his house? He that is not with me is against

me, and he that gathereth not with me scattereth indeed. Therefore 
I say to you All sins and blasphemies shall be forgiven to men, 
but every one that against the Holy Spirit shall blaspheme, it shall 
not be forgiven him. And every one that shall say a word against 
the Son of Man, it shall be forgiven him ; but every one that against 
the Holy Spirit shall blaspheme, it shall not be forgiven him, not 
in this world nor in the world that is to be. Either make a good 
tree and then its fruits are good, or make an evil tree and then its 
fruits are evil; but from its fruits is the tree known. Offspring of 
vipers, how can ye speak good things, ye that are evil? For from 
the superfluities of the heart doth the mouth bring forth; and the 
good man from the good treasures in his heart bringeth forth good 
things, and the evil man from the evil treasures in his heart evil 
things doth speak. But I say to you ‘Every idle word that 
men shall speak, they shall give for it an answer in the day of 
judgement. For from thy words thou shalt be justified, and from 
thy words thou shalt be condemned.’* 

Then drew near unto him some of the scribes and Pharisees, 
and they say to him: “Teacher, we wish to see from thee some 
sign.” But he answered and said to them: “This generation evil 
and adulterous—a sign it seeketh, and a sign shall not be given to

belly of the fish three days and three nights, so the Son of Man 
also shall be in the heart of the earth’ three days and three nights. 
The men-folk of Nineve will stand up in judgement with this 
generation and will make it guilty, in that they repented at the 
preaching of Jonah, and lo, a greater than Jonah is here. The 
queen of the South will stand up in judgement with this generation 
and will make it guilty, in that she came from the other sides of 
the earth that she might hear the wisdom of Solomon, and lo, a 
greater than Solomon is here. 

“Now the unclean spirit, what time it hath come forth from a 
man, goeth travelling about in places where there is no water, that 
it may find for itself ease; and what time it hath found none for 
itself, then it saith: ‘I will return avd go to my house from where 
1 came forth. And if it hath come and found it empty and brushed 
and garnished, then it goeth and taketh with itself seven other 
spirits worse than itself, and they enter and dwell therein, and the 
last state of that man becometh worse than his first state. So shall 
it be to this same evil generation.” 

And when he was speaking to the multitude, lo, his mother and 
his brothers were standing outside, and were seeking to speak with 
him. But he answered and said to that one which told him: “Who 
is my mother, and who are my brothers?” And he stretched forth 
his hand towards his disciples and said: “Lo, my mother; and lo, 
my brothers! For every one which doeth the will of my Father 
in heaven, this ove is my brothers and my sisters and my mother.”

$8. MATTHEW XIII 69 


And on that day Jesus went forth from the house and sat down 
by the side of the lake. And there were gathered unto him great 
multitudes, and he went up and sat down in the boat, and all the 
multitude was standing on the sea shore. And he spake with them 
much in parables, and said: “Lo, the sower went forth to sow 0 
and when he sowed, some fell by the way-side and the birds of the 
heaven came and ate it. Now other fell on the rock, and there was 
not much earth, and in the same hour it sprouted, because there 
was no depth of much earth ; and with the shining of the sun that 
was upon the land, it dried up, and because it had not cast a root 
in the land it withered. Other fell among the thorns, and the 
thorns came up with it and choked it. Now other fell in the good 
land and gave fruit, and they grew up and gave some an hundred, 
some sixty, and some thirty. Every one that hath ears to hear, 
let him hear.” 

And his disciples drew near, and say to him: “Wherefore in 
parables speakest thou with them?” And he answered and said 
to them: “Because to you is given to know the mystery of the 
kingdom of heaven, but to them—it is not given to them to know. 
For he that hath, it shall be given to him and it shall be added 


to him; and he that hath not, even that also which he hath shall

be taken from him. Therefore in parables do I speak with them, CS 


that what they see they may not see, and what they hear they may 
not hear and may not understand, that in no wise they should turn 
round. And the prophecy of Isaiah the prophet shall be accom- 
plished, who had said ‘Ye shall hear indeed and shall not under- 
stand, and a vision ye shall see and shall not see; for the heart 
of this people is become gross, and their ears they have made heavy 
that they should not hear, and their eyes they have closed, that 
they should not see with their eyes and hear with their ears, and 
understand with their heart, and turn round and I should heal 
them.’ But as for yours, happy is it for your eyes that see, and 
happy for your ears that hear! For amen, I say to you that many 
prophets and righteous men have longed that they might see that 
which ye see, and they have not seen; and to hear that which ye 
hear, and they have not heard. But ye, hear ye the similitude of 
the sower. Kvery man that heareth the word of the kingdom and 
understandeth not, the Evil One cometh and snatcheth away the 
seed from his heart ; this is that which was sown by the way-side. 
And that which was sown on the rock, this is he which heareth the 
word, and with joy hastily receiveth it. And because it hath no 
root, a little while it remaineth in him, but what time there is distress 
or persecution because of the word quickly he is offended. And 
that which fell among the thorns, this is he which heareth the word, 
and is with the care of this world and with the deceitfulness of 
riches, and they choke him, and he becometh without fruit. And 
that which fell in the good land, that is he which heareth the word

and attendeth to it, and giveth fruit, some an hundred and some 
sixty and some thirty.” 

Now another similitude he added and said to them: “Like is 
the kingdom of heaven to a man that sowed good seed in his 
field ; and when folk slept, the enemy came and sowed tares among 
the wheat and went away. And when the green blade grew and 
brought forth fruit, then the tares were seen. And the slaves of the 
master of the house drew near and say to him: ‘Our lord, was it 
not good seed thou sowedst in thy field? Whence are there in it 
tares?’ Now he said to them: ‘A man that is an enemy did this,’ 
His slaves say to him: ‘If thou wilt, we will go and pluck them,’ 
He saith to them: ‘Nay, lest when ye are plucking the tares, ye 
root up also the wheat with them; but leave them growing up 
together until the harvest, and in the time of the harvest I will 
say to the reapers: Pluck first the tares and bind them cto bundles 
as for the fire, and the wheat gather into barns of mine.’ ” 

And he was saying to them another similitude: “Like is the 
kingdom of heaven to a grain of mustard, that a man took and 
sowed it in his field. And it is the least of all seeds, and what 
time it hath grown up, it is greater than all herbs, and becometh 
a tree, and the winged fowl of the heaven come and settle in its 
branches.”

leavened.”

All these things spake Jesus in parables to the multitudes, and CS 


without parables he was not speaking with them ; and the word 
was accomplished that was said by the prophet, who had said: “I 
will open my mouth in similitudes, and I will speak things secret 
from of old.” 

Then he left the multitudes and came to the house, and _ his 
disciples drew near before him, and say to him: “ Explain to us 
that similitude of the tares of the field.’ Now he answered and 
said to them: “The sower of the good seed is the Son of Man, 
and the field is the world, but the good seed—they are the sons of 
the kingdom ; and the tares are the sons of the Evil One, and the 
sower is the Evil One, and the harvest is the conclusion of the 
world, and the reapers are the angels. Just therefore as the tares 
are plucked and burn in the fire, so shall it be in the conclusion of 
the world : the Son of Man will send his angels, that they may choose 
out from the place of the kingdom all offences and all that do 
wickedness, and they shall cast them into the furnace of fire ; there 
shall be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth! Then the righteous 
shall gleam as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He that 
hath ears to hear, let him hear. 

“Like is the kingdom of heaven to treasure that is laid in a 
field ; and when a man found it he hid it, and out of his joy he 
went and sold everything that he had, and bought himself that 
field.

8. MATTHEW XIII 27 


“Again, like is the kingdom of heaven to a man, a merchant, that 
was seeking good pearls; and when he found a pearl good and of 
great price, he went and sold everything that he had and came and 
bought it for himself. 

“Again, like is the kingdom of heaven to a great net that fell 
into the sea, and of every kind it gathered. Now when it was 
full they took it up on the sea shore, and sat and chose out the 
fishes—the good as good, and those that were bad they threw out. 
So shall it be in the end of the world: the angels will go forth and 
will separate the evil from among the righteous, and shall cast them 
into the furnace of fire ; there shall be the weeping and the gnashing 
of teeth!” 

Saith to them Jesus, to the disciples: “Have ye understood these 
things all of them?” They say to him: “Yea.” He saith to them: 
“Therefore every scribe that is instructed in the kingdom of heaven 
is like to a man, the master of a house, who bringeth forth from his 
treasures the new and the old.” 

And when Jesus finished these similitudes, he removed from 
thence, and came to his own city. And Jesus was teaching them 
in their synagogues, so that they were astonished; and they 
say: “Whence cometh to this one this wisdom and this power? 
Is not this Joseph’s son, the carpenter? And the name of 8 
mother, Mary? And his brothers James and Joseph and Simon and 
Judas? And his sisters, all of them are with us. Whence come

all these things to this one? And they were offended at him. Now 
Jesus said to them: “There is not a prophet who is insulted, save 
in his city and in his house.” And he did not there many mighty 
works, because of the lack of their faith. 

Now at that time Herod the Tetrarch heard the rumour of Jesus, 
and he said to his slaves: “This is John the Baptist, he hath risen 
from among the dead, therefore great is his power.” For Herod had 
seized John and bound him, and cast him into prison because of 
Herodia the wife of Philip his brother ; for John had been saying to 
him “It is not lawful for thee that she should be a wife of thine.” 
And he was wishing to kill him, and was afraid of the people, because 
as a prophet they were holding John. 

And when it was the birth-day of Herod, the daughter of Herodia 
entered aud danced in the midst of the entertainment, and pleased 
Herod ; therefore he promised her with an oath that all what she 
should ask him he would give her. Now she, because she had been 
taught by her mother, said: “Give me here in a dish the head of 
John the Baptist.” And it grieved the king, but for the oath’s sake 
and for the sake of them that sat at meat he commanded that it 
should be given to her. And he sent and cut off the head of John in 
the prison, and they brought the head of John in a dish, and it was 
given to the girl and the girl carried it away to her mother. And 
the disciples of John drew near and took up his corpse and buried 


him, and they came and shewed Jesus. Now Jesus when he heard

departed from thence to a desert place with them alone. And when 
the multitudes from the cities and from the villages heard, they went 
away after him on foot, and when he saw the many multitudes he had 
compassion upon them, and their infirm he healed. 

And when it was evening his disciples drew near and say to him: 
“The place is desert, and the time is past ; dismiss those multitudes 
that they may go to the villages and buy for themselves food.” 
And he saith to them: “It is not required for them to go; give ye 
them to eat.” They say to him: “We have not here but five loaves 
and two fishes.” He saith to them: “Bring them to me.” And he com- 
manded the multitudes to sit down to meat on the green grass; and 
he took up these five loaves and two fishes, and looked up to heaven 
and blessed, and brake bread and gave to his disciples and they, his 
disciples, gave to the multitudes. And they all ate and were satisfied, 
and they took up of the superfluity of the fragments from before 
them twelve baskets full. And those folk that ate were five thou- 
sand men, besides women and children. And he commanded his 
disciples that they should sit in the ship and go before him to the 
other side, until he should dismiss these multitudes. And when he 
dismissed them he went up to the hill alone to pray, and when

watch of the night Jesus came unto them walking on the water, 
26 and when his disciples saw him that he was walking on the waves

27 and from their fear they gave a cry. And in the same hour 
he spake with them: “Take courage; it is I, be not afraid!” 
28 Saith to him Simon Kepha: “My Lord, if it be thou, permit 
29 me that I come unto thee upon the water.” He saith to him: 
“Come.” And Simon Kepha came down from the boat and was 
30 walking on the water, and came unto Jesus. And when he saw the 
wind that it was strong, he was afraid and began to sink; and he 
3£ called with a loud voice and said: “My Lord, save my life!” And 
in the same hour Jesus put forth his hand and took hold of him, and 
he said to him: “O lacking in faith, wherefore didst thou doubt?” 
32, 33 And when he went up into the boat the wind ceased. And those in 
the boat came near and worshipped him, and say: “Truly thou art

that were ill, and they were beseeching him that they might touch 
only the fringe of his mantle, and those that had touched had been 
healed. 

Then drew near unto Jesus scribes and Pharisees from J erusalem, 
and say unto him: “Wherefore do thy disciples transgress the com- 
mandments of our ancients? for they wash not their hands what time 
they eat bread.” Now he answered and said to them: “Wherefore 
do ye also yourselves transgress the commandment of God, because 
ye will set up your commandments? For God said: Honour thy 
father and thy mother, and he that curseth his father or his mother 
shall be killed. But ye say each to his father and his mother: ‘My 
offering—thou shalt be profited from me!’ This one hath not 
honoured his father. And ye have made idle the word of God, 
because ye will set up your commandments. Ye respecters of 
persons, well prophesied of you Isaiah the prophet, who said: ' 8 
people with their lips honoureth me, and their heart is far from me :" 
but in vain do they fear me, and teach teachings of the command- 
ments of men.’ ” 

And he called the multitude and said to them: “Hear and under- 
stand, that Snot that which entereth the mouth defileth the man, but 
that which cometh forth from the mouth, that defileth the man.’

Then drew near his disciples and say to him: “Knowest thou that 
the Pharisees when they heard this word were offended?” But he 
answered and said to them: € Every plant that my Father in heaven 
hath not planted shall be rooted up." Let them be, they are leaders 
of the blind; but the blind man that leadeth the blind man with him 
falleth in the ditch.” Simon Kepha answered and said to him: 
“Explain to us this similitude.” He saith to him: “Do not even ye 
yet understand? Do ye not know that everything which entereth the 
mouth, to the belly it goeth, and from thence is thrown away in the 
cleansing. But that which cometh forth from the mouth, from the 
heart it cometh forth, and it is that defileth the man. $For from the 
heart come forth evil thoughts" of murder and of adultery and of 
fornication and of theft, and false witness and blasphemy ; these are 
they that defile the man. For when any one shall eat bread with 
unwashen hands, he is not defiled.” 

And Jesus came forth from thence, and went away to the border 
of Tyre and Sidon. And lo, a certain woman, a Canaanite, came forth 
from those same borders, and was crying out and saith: “Have 
compassion on me, my Lord, son of David! my daughter is evilly 
entreated at the hands of a devil.’ And he gave her no answer.

saying to him: “Dismiss her, for lo, she crieth out and cometh 
after us.” But he answered and said to them: “I have not been 
sent save after the flock, which hath strayed from the House of 
Israel.” Then she herself drew near and worshipped him, and saith 
to him: “My Lord, help me!” But he answered and said to her: 
“Tt is not fitting to take the sons’ bread and to cast it to the dogs.” 
She saith to him: “Yea, my Lord, for even the dogs eat of the 
morsels that fall from the tables of their masters and live.” And he 
answered and said to her: “Oh woman, great is thy faith! It 
shall be to thee as thou wilt.” And her daughter was healed from 
that hour. 

And Jesus removed from thence, and came by the side of the lake 
of Galilee. And he went up and sat in the hill, and there drew 
near to him great multitudes, there being with them the lame and the 
blind and the deaf and the maimed, and many with other pains, and 
they cast them at his feet, and he healed them. And those multitudes 
were wondering, when they were seeing the deaf speaking, and the 
lame walking, and the blind seeing; and they were glorifying the 
God of Israel. Now Jesus called his disciples and said to them: 
“T have compassion on this multitude, for lo, three days they have 
remained by me, and they have not what they may eat, and that I 


should dismiss them without a meal I am not willing, that they faint

us in a desert place with bread to satisfy all this multitude?” Jesus 
saith to them: “How many pieces of bread are there by you?” They 
say to him: “Seven pieces of bread and a few fishes.” And he 
commanded the multitudes that they should sit down to meat on the 
ground. And he took up the seven pieces of bread and the fishes, 
and glorified God and brake and gave to his disciples, and_ his 
disciples gave to the multitudes. And they all ate and were satisfied, 
and they took up from before them the superabundance of the frag- 
ments full seven panniers full. And the folk which ate were four 
thousand men, besides children and women. 

And when he dismissed the multitude he went up and sat in the 
boat, and went away to the border of Magedon. And there drew 
near the Pharisees and the Sadducees, and were tempting him and 
asking him for a sign from heaven that he should shew them. But 
he said to them: “A generation evil and adulterous—a sign it seeketh 
and a sign shall not be given to it, save the sign of Jonah the 
prophet.” And he left them and went away. And when he came to 
the other side, his disciples forgot to carry for themselves bread. 
Jesus saith to them: “Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and 
of the Sadducees.” And they were thinking among themselves that 
they had not taken for themselves bread. But Jesus knew and said

8. MATTHEW XVI 93 


ye have not carried for yourselves bread? Until now do ye not 
understand? and do ye not recollect the five pieces of bread, and the 
five thousand also that ate of them, and how many baskets ye took up 
from before them? Neither also those seven pieces of bread that 
four thousand ate of, and how many panniers ye took up? How is it 
ye do not understand that not concerning bread said I to you ‘Beware 
of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees?’” Then under- 
stood they that not concerning the leaven of the Pharisees and of the 
Sadducees said he to them ‘Beware,’ but of the teaching of the 
Pharisees and of the Sadducees. 

Now when Jesus came to the country of Caesarea of Philip, he 
was asking his disciples and saying: “ What say folk of me that I am? 
‘Who is this Son of Man?’” His disciples say to him: “There are 
that say ‘It is John the Baptist’; others say ‘It is Elijah’; 


2 


others 
say, ‘It is Jeremiah’; others say, ‘It is one of the prophets.’” 
He saith to them: “And ye,’ what say ye that Iam?” Simon Kepha 
answered and said: “Thou art the Messiah, the Son of the Living 
God!” Jesus saith to him: “ Happy is it for thee, Simon son of 
Jona, to whom flesh and blood hath not revealed i, but my Father 
in heaven! TI also say to thee that thou art Kepha the Stone, and on

overpower it. To thee I will give the keys of the doors of the kingdom 
of heaven, and everything which thou shalt bind on earth shall be 
bound in heaven, and that which thou shalt remit on earth shall be 
remitted in heaven.” Then he rebuked these same disciples of his, 
that to no one should they say of him that he was the Messiah. 

From then had Jesus begun to shew his disciples that he was 
about to go to Jerusalem and endure much, and suffer from the 
elders and the chief priests and the scribes, and they will kill him and 
the third day he will rise. And Simon Kepha drew near and said: 
“Be it far from thee, my Lord! This shall not be!” But Jesus 
turned round and rebuked him, even Simon, and said to him: “Get 
thee behind me, Satan, a stumbling-block art thou to me, in that thou 
dost not consider the things of God, but of men.” Then said Jesus to 
his disciples: “He that willeth to come after me let him deny himself 
and take up his cross and come after me. For he that willeth to save 
his life shall lose it, and he that shall lose his life for my sake shall 
find it. For what is a man profited, if he should get the whole world 
and lack his life? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his 
life? For the Son of Man is about to come in the glory of his Father 
with his angels, and then he shall repay each man according to his 
deeds. Amen, I say to you that there are some of these that stand 
here, that shall not taste death until they see the Son of Man coming 
in his kingdom and in his glory.” 

After six days Jesus took Simon Kepha and James and John his 
brother and brought them up to a high hill alone. And the appear- 
ance of his face was transfigured before their eyes, and his countenance 
shone as the sun and his garments became white as the snow; and 
there appeared to them Moses and Elijah speaking with him. Saith 
Simon Kepha to Jesus: “It is well for us that we should be here ; if 
thou wilt, we will make here three dwellings, for thee one and for 


Moses one and for Elijah one.” And while yet he was speaking, lo, a

cloud of light overshadowed them, and a voice was heard from that 
cloud, saying: “This is my son and my beloved, in whom I am 
pleased; hear ye him!” And when his disciples heard, they were 
afraid exceedingly and fell on their faces. And Jesus drew near and 
raised them up, and said to them: “Be not afraid!” And they 
lifted up their eyes, and saw no one, save Jesus alone. And while 
they were coming down from the hill, Jesus was commanding them 
and saying to them: “ Beware lest to any one ye say the vision, 
until the Son of Man should arise from among the dead.” 

And his disciples were asking him and saying: “Wherefore say 
the scribes that Elijah cometh first?” He saith to them: “ Elijah 
cometh that he may prepare everysthing. But I say to you that 
Elijah hath come, and they knew him not but did with him all 
that they would; so also the Son of Man is about to endure from 
them.” Then understood his disciples that of John the Baptist he 
said to them so. And when Jesus came unto the multitude, a 
certain man came and fell on his knees, and was beseeching him and 
saying to him: “My Lord, have compassion on me! My son—a 
demon of lunacy he hath and evils he endureth, for how many times 
he falleth in the fire and how many times in the water! And I 
brought him near to thy disciples, and they were not able to heal 
him.” Jesus answered and said to them: “Ah generation perverse 
and without faith! until when shall I be with you and endure you? 
Bring me thy son here” And Jesus chid him, and there came 


forth from him the devil, and from that hour was that lad healed.

Then drew near unto Jesus his disciples and say to him between 
themselves and him: “ Wherefore were we ourselves not able to cast 
it out?” He saith to them: “ Because of the littleness of your faith ; 
for amen, I say to you ‘If so be that there be in you faith as a grain 
of mustard, ye shall say to this hill that it should remove from hence 
and it will remove, and nothing shall overpower you.” 

And when they were abiding in Galilee Jesus said to them: 
“Now the Son of Man is about to be delivered into the hands of men, 
and they will kill him, and the third day he will rise.’ And it 
grieved them exceedingly. 

And when they came to Kapharnahum there came those that 
collect the two drachmas a head unto Simon, and they say to him : 
“Thy Rabbi—doth he not give his two drachmas?” And Simon 
saith:  ¥@8.7 And when they entered the house Jesus met him

earth—from whom do they collect toll and head-money? from their 
sons, or from strangers?” Simon saith to him: “From strangers.”

that cometh up take and open its mouth, and thou shalt find there a 
stater—take it and give it for me and for thee.” 

And on that day had the disciples of Jesus drawn near, and they 
say to him: “Who then shall be greatest in the kingdom of heaven?” 
And Jesus called a certain lad and made him stand among them, and 
said: “Amen, I say to you 11 ye turn not yourselves and become as 
one of these children, ye shall not enter the kingdom of heaven." 
For he that humbleth himself as this lad, he is greatest in the 
kingdom of heaven. And every one that shall receive as it were one 
of these children in my name, me it is he receiveth. And every one 
that shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were 
profitable for him that an ass’s millstone should be hanged about his 
neck, and he be sunk in the depths of the sea. Woe to the world 
from the offences that come! For it is necessary that offences should 
come, but woe to the man by whose hand the offences come! But if 
thy hand or thy foot offend thee, cut 7 off and throw it from thee; 
for it is profitable for thee that thou shouldest come unto life being 
lame or being mutilated, and not having two hands and two feet fall 


into the Gehenna of fire. ‘And if so be that thine eye offend thee, 





take it and give it] give /ܐ‎ to them 8 For Thos” see Introd. vol. ii

that which ye shall remit in earth shall be remitted in heaven. 

“Again, amen, I say to you If two of you shall consent in earth 
on what they shall ask, it shall be to them from my Father in 
heaven. ‘For wherever two or three are gathered together in my 
name, there am [ in their midst.’ 

Then drew near unto him Simon Kepha and said to him: “My 
Lord, Show many times if so be that my brother trespass against me 
shall I forgive him? Until seven times?” He saith to him: “Not 
seven, but for seventy sevens.‘ 

“Therefore like is the kingdom of heaven to a man, a king, that 
wished *to take a reckoning from his slaves. And when he began to 
take the reckoning there drew near before him one of them that 
owed him ten thousand talents. And when he had not aught to 
repay he commanded that he should be sold, he and his wife and his 
sons, and that all that he had should be taken. And that slave fell

down and worshipped his lord, and said: ‘Be lenient with me, and 
everything will I repay thee. And his lord had compassion on him, 
and dismissed him, the debt too he forgave him. And that slave 
went forth and found one of his fellow-servants that had owed him 
an hundred denars and he took hold of him and was strangling him, 
and was saying to him: ‘Repay me that which thou owest me. 
And that fellow-servant of his fell down and was beseeching him 
and was saying to him: ‘Be lenient with me, and I also will repay.’ 
Now he did not receive his supplication, but went and cast him into 
prison," until he should repay him that which he owed. Now when 
his fellow-servants saw what things had happened it grieved them 
exceedingly, and they went and shewed to their lord everything 
which had happened. Then his lord called him and said to him: 
‘Evil slave, all that debt I forgave thee, because thou didst beseech 
me; oughtest not thou also to have been merciful to thy fellow- 
servant, even as I myself was merciful to thee?’ And his lord was 
wroth with him, and delivered him up that he might be scourged 
until he should repay all the debt. ‘So will my Father in heaven do 
to you, except ye forgive each one his brother from your hearts.” * 
And it came to pass when Jesus finished these words he removed 
from Galilee and came to the border of Judaea to the other side of 
Jordan. And there came after him a great multitude, and he healed 


them there.

8. MATTHEW XIX 109 


And there drew near unto him the Pharisees, and they were 
tempting him and were saying “ Tell us if so be that it is lawful for 
a man to dismiss his wife for every cause.” But he answered and 
said to them: “Have ye not read that He that made the male from 
the beginning the female also made, and said ‘Therefore shall the 
man leave his father and his mother and shall attach himself to his 
wife, and the two of them shall become one flesh’? Henceforth they 
have become not two, but are one flesh; that which God therefore 
hath coupled let not man separate.” They say to him: “ Why 
therefore did Moses command that he that would dismiss his wife 
should give her a letter of divorce?” He saith to them: “Moses—it 
is because of the hardness of your heart he permitted you to dismiss 
your wives, but from the beginning it was not so. But I say to you 
He that leaveth his wife without a word of adultery, and taketh 
another, doth indeed commit adultery against her.” His disciples 
say to him: “If so there is blame between man and wife it is 
not profitable to take a wife.” Jesus saith to them: “SNot every 
one is sufficient for this word, but they to whom it is given from 
God.1_ For there are eunuchs that from their mother’s womb were 
eunuchs, and there are eunuchs that men have made, and there are 
those that have made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven’s 
sake. But he that is capable in power to endure, let him endure.” 

Then they brought near to him children, that he should lay his 
hand on them and pray; and his disciples rebuked them. Jesus saith 
to them: “Suffer the children to come unto me and forbid them not 


that they should come unto me; for they that are such as these,

theirs is the kingdom of heaven.” And he laid his hand on them 
and went from thence. 


And a certain man drew near and said to him: “Good teacher, 
Swhat shall I do that I may inherit life eternal?” Jesus saith to him: 
“Why dost thou ask me about the Good One? for one is good,—God. 
Now if thou dost wish to enter life, keep the commandments.” He 
saith to him: “Which?” SJesus saith to him: “s‘Thou shalt not kill, 
and ‘Thou shalt not commit adultery,’ and ‘Thou shalt not thieve,’ 
and ‘Thou shalt not bear false witness, ‘Honour thy father and thy 
mother,’ and ‘ Be loving to thy neighbour as thyself’”* That youth 
saith to him: “These all—I have kept them, lo, from when I was a 
child! What yet lack I?” Jesus saith to him: “If thou dost wish 
to become perfect, go sell thy property and give to the poor, and thou 
shalt have treasure in heaven, and take thy Cross and come after 


me.” And when that youth heard this word he went away grieved, 


because he had much property. Now Jesus said to his disciples:

“Amen, I say to you It is difficult for a rich man to enter the 
kingdom of heaven. Now again I say to you It is easier for a camel 
to pass through the eye of a needle than a rich man into the kingdom 
of heaven.”" Now again when his disciples heard they were astonished 
and were afraid exceedingly, and were saying: “Who then can live?” 
Jesus looked upon them and said to them: “This among men cannot 
be, but God everything can do.” Then answered Simon Kepha and 
said to him: ‘“ Lo, we have left everything and have come after thee; 
what then shall we have?” Jesus saith to them: “Amen, I say to you 
Ye that have come after me, in the new birth, what time the Son of 
Man sitteth on the Throne of his glory, Sye shall sit yourselves also 
upon twelve thrones and shall judge the twelve families of the 
House of Israel... And every man that hath left houses and brothers, 
or sisters, or mother, or wife, or sons, or fields, for my sake, even 
mine, shall receive an hundredfold and in the world to come shall 
inherit life eternal. But there are many first that shall be last,

“Now like is the kingdom of heaven to a man, the master of a CS 


house, that went forth at dawn to hire labourers for his vineyard, and 
he settled with those same labourers for one denar to one labourer 
for one day; and he sent them to his vineyard. And he went forth 
at the third hour and saw others standing in the street and idling, 
and he said to them: ‘Go ye also to the vineyard, and that which it is 
fitting I will give you’ And they went; and he went forth again at 
the sixth hour, and at the ninth hour, and did likewise. And he 
went forth at the eleventh hour and found others standing, and he 
said to them: ‘Why are ye standing and idling all the day?’ They 
say to him: ‘No man hath hired us.’ He saith to them: ‘Go ye also 
to the vineyard and what is right I will give you.’ And when it was 
evening the lord of the vineyard said to his steward: ‘Call those 
labourers and give them their hire, and begin from the last until the 
first. Now when there came those of the eleventh hour they took up 
a denar each. And when the first came they were supposing that to 
them he would give more,—and they also took a denar each. And 
when they saw they murmured against the master of the house, 
and they say to him: ‘These last--one hour have they tilled,

Ss. MATTHEW XX 117 


denar thou didst settle with me? Take thine own and go, and if I 
am willing that I should give to this last as to thee, have I not 
authority to do with mine own that which I will? Or perchance 
thine eye is evil, that Iam good?’ So shall the last be first and the 
first shall be last, for many are the called and few the chosen.” 

And when Jesus was going up to Jerusalem he had taken with 
him his Twelve in the way, and said to them between himself and 
them: “Lo, we go up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man is delivered 
up to the chief priests and to the scribes, and they will condemn him 
to death, and will deliver him up to the peoples, and they will mock 
at him and scourge him and crucify him, and the third day he will 
rise.” 

Then drew near unto him the mother of the sons of Zebedee, she 
and her sons, and she fell down and worshipped him, and was asking 
him a thing. But he said to her: “What wouldest thou?” She saith 
to him: “My Lord, that these my two sons may sit one on thy right 
and one on thy left in thy kingdom and in thy glory.” Jesus 
answered and said to her: “Ye know not what ye are asking. Are 
ye able to drink this cup that I am about to drink?” They say: 
“We are able.” Jesus saith to them: “That ye should drink this 
cup ye are able; but that ye should sit one on my right and one 
on my left, this is not mine that I should give ¢é to you, but to those 


for whom it hath been made ready by my Father.” And when the

Ten heard, they were wroth against those two brothers." And Jesus 
called them and said to them: “Ye know that the chiefs of the 
peoples are their lords, and their nobles have authority over them. 
Now among you it shall not be so, but he that would with you be 
the great one shall be to you a servant, and he that would with you 
be first shall be to you a slave ; even as the Son of Man came not to 
be served but to serve, and give his life to be a redemption for many. 
But ye, seek ye that from littleness ye may increase, and not from 
greatness become little. 

“What time ye are bidden to a supper-party be not sitting down 
to meat in an honourable place, that there may not come one more 
honourable than thou, and the lord of the supper say to thee ‘ Bring 
thyself down, and thou be confounded in the eyes of the guests. 
But if thou sit down to meat in a lesser place, and there come one 
less than: thou, and the lord of the supper say to thee ‘Bring thy- 
self and come up and sit down to meat, then thou shalt have 
more glory in the eyes of the guests.” 

And when they were going forth from Jericho a great multitude 
was coming after him, and two blind men were sitting by the way- 
side ; and when they heard that Jesus was passing by, they were 
crying out and saying: “Have compassion on us, son of David!” 
And those multitudes were rebuking them that they should be silent, 
but they lifted up their voice, and say: “Have compassion on us, 
our Lord, son of David!” And Jesus stood and called them, and 


said: “ What would ye that I should do for you?” They say to him:

8. MATTHEW XX, XXI 121 


“Our Lord, that our eyes may be opened and we may see thee.” 
And he had compassion on them, and he touched their eyes, and in 
the same hour they saw and went after him. 

And when he drew near to Jerusalem, and came to Beth Phagge 
by the side of the Mount of the Olive-orchard, then sent Jesus two of 
his disciples, and said to them: “Go to this village over against you. 
Lo, ye will find a certain ass tied and her colt by her side ; loose and 
bring them to me. And if anyone say to you aught, say to him, 
‘For their Lord are they required,’ and immediately he will send 
them.” Now this that came to pass happened that that might be 
fulfilled which was said by the prophet, who had said: “Say to the 
daughter of Zion, ‘Lo, thy king cometh to thee, righteous and meek, 
and riding on an ass and on a colt the foal of a she-ass.”’” And those 
disciples of his went and did as Jesus commanded them, and they 
brought the ass and the colt, and they had spread their cloaks, and 
Jesus rode upon them. Anda number of that multitude had strewn 
their cloaks in the way, but others were cutting branches from the trees 
and were casting them in the way. And those multitudes that were 
going before him and with him were crying out and saying: “Osanna 
to the son of David! Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the 
Lorp! Osanna in the highest!’ And many went forth to meet 
him, and they were rejoicing and glorifying God for all that they 
saw. 

And when he entered Jerusalem the whole city was troubled, and 
they say: “Who is this?” Those multitudes say to them: “This is 
Jesus the prophet from Nazareth of Galilee.” And Jesus entered 
the Temple of God, and put forth from the Temple of God all the 
buyers and the sellers; and Jesus overturned the tables of the 
money-changers, and the thrones of those selling doves, and he said 
to them: “It is written ‘My House a House of Prayer shall be called 





3 their Lord] or, ‘their master’: so Ephr 17 1094 (sie lege), and see 
Introd. vol. ii 9 fin.] See Note to xx 28. Diat™ xxxix 31—35 gives

for all the peoples, but ye have made it a den of pirates.’ And 
there drew near to him in the Temple the blind and the deaf, 
and he healed them. And when the scribes and the chief priests saw 
the wonders that he did, and the children that were crying out in the 
midst of the Temple and were saying: “Osanna to the son of David!” 
it displeased them, and they say: “Dost thou not hear what these 
are saying?” Jesus saith to them: “Yes; have ye never read ‘Out 
of the mouth of children and of infants I will make praise’?” And 
he left them and went forth out from the city to Beth Ania, that he 
might be there. Now in the morning when he was crossing over to 
the city he hungered, and he saw a certain fig-tree in the way, and he 
came unto it and did not find on it anything save leaves only, and he 
said to it: “No more fruit will be on thee for ever!” And in the 
same hour that fig-tree withered. And when ‘his disciples saw 7 they 
wondered, and were saying: “How this fig-tree straightway withered!” 
Jesus answered and said to them: “Amen, I say to you If there be 
in you faith and ye doubt not, not only as this thing of the fig-tree 
shall ye do, but if ye shall say to this hill ‘Be taken up and fall 
into the sea,’ it shall be to you thus ; and everything which ye shall 
ask in prayer, and shall believe, ye shall receive.” 

And when he came to the Temple there drew near to him the 
chief priests and the elders of the people, and they say to him: 
“By what authority doest thou these things, and who gave thee this 
authority?” Jesus answered and said to them: “I also will ask 
you this word that ye shall say to me, and I will say to you by

whence was it? from heaven, or from men?” Now they were con- 
sidering among themselves and were saying “If we say to him that 
it is from heaven, he will say to us ‘And wherefore did ye not 
believe in him?’—and if we say that it is from men, we are afraid of 
the multitude,” for all the folk as to a prophet were holding to John. 
And they say to him: “We do not know.’ Jesus saith to them: 
“And neither do I say to you by what authority I do these things. 
“Now how seemeth it to you? A certain man, he had two sons ; 
he saith to the first : ‘Go, my son, to-day; do work in the vineyard. 
He saith to him: ‘I will not’; but lastly he changed his mind 
and went to the vineyard. And he said to the other likewise, 
and he answered and said: ‘Yea, my lord’; and went not. Which 
out of these twain seemeth it to you that he did the will of his 
father?” They say to him: “That first one.” Jesus saith to them: 
“Amen, I say to you, that the toll-gatherers and the harlots go be- 
fore you into the kingdom of God. For there came unto you John 
in the way of uprightness and ye did not believe him ; but the toll- 
gatherers and the harlots believed in him, but ye—not even when ye

house ; he planted a vineyard and surrounded it with a hedge and 
digged in it a wine-press and built in it a tower, and he delivered 
it over to husbandmen and went away. And when the time of fruits 


drew near he sent his slaves unto the husbandmen, that they should 


$ send him the fruits ; and those husbandmen took hold of his slaves, 


one they beat and one they stoned and one they killed. Again he 
sent other slaves of his more than the first, and they did to them like- 
wise. But at the last he sent unto them his son, and said : ‘Perhaps 
they will have reverence for my son.’ But those husbandmen when 
they saw his son, said among themselves: ‘This is his heir; come, 
let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours’ And they took 
hold of him and put him forth out of the vineyard and killed him. 
When therefore the lord of the vineyard shall come, what will he do 
to those same husbandmen?” They say to him “Miserably will he 
destroy them, and the vineyard he will deliver over to other husband- 
men, who give the fruits in their season.” Jesus saith to them: 
“Have ye never read in Scripture ‘The stone which the builders 
rejected, it hath become the head of the corner; from the Lorp 
this came to pass, and it is a wonder in our eyes’? Therefore 
I say to you ‘The kingdom of God shall be taken away from you, 
and shall be given to a people that bringeth forth 71 
‘For every one that falleth on that stone shall be broken; and 
every one whom it shall fall upon, it shall crush him.”% Now

knew that against them he said £, And they had sought to take 


hold of him, and were afraid of the people, because as to a prophet 
they were holding to him. 

Again Jesus answered and said to them in parables: “The 
kingdom of heaven hath become like to a man, a king, that made a 
wedding for his son; and he sent his slaves that they should call 
those bidden to the wedding, and they wished not to come. 

“Again he sent other slaves and said: Say to those that were 
bidden, ‘Lo, my supper is ready and my fatted oxen are killed, 
and everything is ready ; come ye to the wedding.’ But they dis- 
dained the invitation, and one went to the field and one went to 
merchandise, but the rest that were left behind took hold of his 
slaves and insulted them and killed them. And that king was wroth 
and sent his army, and it destroyed those murderers, and their 
city it burned with fire. 

“Then said he to his slaves: ‘The wedding is ready and those 
that were bidden were not worthy of it; henceforth go forth to 
between the highways, and whomsoever ye find call to the wedding- 
feast.’ And those slaves went forth to between the highways, and 
gathered all that they found, the bad and the good ; and the wedding- 
feast was filled with guests. And the king entered that he might see 
the guests, and he saw there a man not clad in clothing for the 


wedding. He saith to him: ‘My comrade, how hast thou come

Then said the king to his servants: ‘Take hold of him by his hands 
and by his feet, and put him forth into the outer darkness ; there 
shall be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth’ ‘For many are 
the called and few the chosen.” 

Then went the Pharisees and took counsel how they might catch 
him with a word. And they sent unto him their disciples with 
the slaves of Herod, and they say to him: “Teacher, we know that 
thou art true, and the way of God in verity thou teachest, and thou 
carest not for any one, for thou hast no respect of persons for 
any one. Say to us what seemeth to thee—is it lawful to 
give head-money to Caesar, or not?” Now Jesus knew their 
thoughts and said to them: “Ye respecters of persons, why tempt 
ye me? Shew me the coin of the head-money.” And they them- 
selves brought near to him a denar. Jesus saith to them: “This 
image and the inscription—of whom is it?” They say to him: 
“Caesar’s.” Then saith he to them: “Give what 78 Caesar’s to 
Caesar, and God’s to God.” And when they heard they wondered 
and left him and went away. 

On that day there drew near before him Sadducees, and 
they say to him that there is no resurrection. And _ they 
asked him, and say to him: “Teacher, Moses said to us,

that if so be that a man shall die not having sons, his wife shall 
become his brother’s and he shall raise up seed to his brother. Now 
there were by us seven brothers: the first of them took a wife and 
died and left no sons, and his wife became his brother’s ; the other 
also did likewise, and the third also unto the seven of them, and lastly 
after all of them that woman died. ‘In the resurrection therefore, 
whose of them shall the woman be? For lo, wife of the seven of them 
she became.” Jesus answered and said to them: “Much do ye err, and 
ye know not the Scriptures neither the power of God. ‘For in the 
coming to life of the dead neither do men take women, nor do women 
become wives of men, but they are as the angels of heaven.1 Now 
concerning the resurrection of the dead, have ye not read that God 
said ‘Iam the God of Abraham and the God of Isaac and the God 
of Jacob’? And lo, ‘the God not of the dead, but of the living.” ™ 
And when those multitudes heard, they were wondering 
at his teaching. But the Pharisees, when they saw that he 


had silenced the Sadducees, were gathered together unto him.

S. MATTHEW XXII, XXIII 135 


And one of them, a scribe, had asked him tempting him and saying 
to him: “Teacher, which commandment is great and first in the 
Law?” Jesus saith to him “‘Thou shalt love the Lorp thy God 
from all thy heart and from all thy soul, and from all thy power ;’ 
this is the great and first commandment. And one after it that is 
like to it 78 ‘Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.’ ‘On these 
two commandments hangeth the Law, and the prophets also.” And 
while the Pharisees were gathered together he was asking them and 
saying: “ What say ye about the Messiah ; whose son is he?” They 
say to him: “David’s son.” He saith to them: “ How therefore doth 
David in the Holy Spirit call him ‘my Lord’? For he said ‘The 
LorD said to my Lord: Sit down on my right hand, until J set thine 
enemies under thy feet.’ If therefore David call him ‘my Lord,’ how 
is he his son?” And no one could give him an answer, neither did 
any one dare from that hour to ask him again. 

Then said Jesus to the multitudes and to his disciples: “On the 
throne of Moses the scribes and the Pharisees have sat down ; every- 
thing that they say to you be hearing and doing, but like their deeds 
do ye not, for they say and do not. And they bind heavy burdens 
and lay them on the shoulders of men, and they themselves with one 
of their fingers do not touch them. For everything that they do 


is that they may seem something to men, and they widen the thongs

“Woe to you blind guides, that ye say: ‘He that sweareth by

sweareth therefore by the altar sweareth by it and by all that is 
upon it, and he that sweareth by the Temple sweareth by it and by 
Him that dwelleth therein, and he that sweareth by the heavens 
sweareth by the throne of God and by Him that sitteth thereon. 

“Woe to you scribes and Pharisees, respecters of persons, that 
ye tithe mint and anise and cummin, and have left the weighty 
matters of the Law, judgement and mercy and faith! Now these ye 
have done, but these have ye not left? Blind guides, in that ye

also on the outside appear to men as righteous, and inside are full of S 
wickedness and turbulence. 

“Woe to you scribes and Pharisees, respecters of persons, that ye 
build the graves of the prophets and adorn the tombs of the righteous, 
and say ‘If we had been in the days of our fathers we would not 
have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets!’ Hence 
ye confess that ye are the sons of them that killed the prophets— 
and ye also will fill up the measure of your fathers! Serpents, 
offspring of vipers! How will ye flee from the judgement of 
Gehenna? Therefore, lo, I send unto you prophets and wise men 
and scribes ; some of them ye will kill and crucify, and some of them 
ye will scourge in your synagogues and will persecute them from city 
to city, that there may come upon you all the blood of the righteous 
that hath been shed on the earth, from the blood of Habel the 
righteous even unto the blood of Zacharia son of Barachia, him that 
ye killed between the Temple and the altar. Amen, I say to you, 
that all these things will come on this generation. Jerusalem, 
Jerusalem, that killest the prophets and stonest them that have been 
sent unto thee, how many times have I wished to gather thy sons 
as the hen that gathereth her young that are under her wings— 
and ye would not! Lo, your house is left; for I say to you Ye 
shall not see me from now, until ye say ‘Blessed is he that cometh 
in the name of the Lorp.’” 

And when Jesus went forth from the Temple to go away and his 
disciples drew near, they shew him the building of the Temple. But 
he answered and said to them: “See ye all these stones? Amen, I 
say to you There will not be left here a stone on a stone that will 


not be thrown down.”

8. MATTHEW XXIV 143 


And when he sat on the Mount of Olives his disciples drew near 
and say to him: “Say to us when they shall be, [and what] is the 
sign of thy coming and of the conclusion of the world 2” 

Jesus answered and said to them: “See that no one lead you 
astray. For many will come in my name, and will say ‘I am the 
Messiah’ and many will they lead astray. But ye are about to hear of 
[wars] and rumour of wars, but [see] lest [ye be afraid; ‘these things 
are about to be,"] but not yet ¢s the conclusion. For people will rise 
against people and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be 
famines and earthquakes in various countries ; but all these things 
are the beginning of travail. And then they will deliver you up to 
distress and they will kill you, and every man will be hating you for 
my name’s sake. Then many will be offended and will deliver up one 
another and will hate one another, and many prophets of falsehood 
will arise and will lead astray many; and because of the multitude 
of wickedness the love of many will be chilled. But he that shall 
endure unto the last, he shall live. And this gospelt of the kingdom 
will be preached in all the world for a witness to all the peoples, 
and then will come the conclusion. 

“Now what time ye have seen the sign of abomination [of 
desolation] that was said by Daniel the prophet—he that readeth, let 
him understand—then they [that are in Judaea] let them flee to 
the hill-cowntry, and he that is on the roof let him not go down 
to take aught from his house, and he which is in the field let him 


not turn round behind to take his cloak. 





6 ‘wars'] S illegible: Lk xxi 9 has ‘wars’, Mk xiii 7 has ‘battles’ 
"these things are about to be'] These words (illegible in S) are supplied 
Jrom A 9. For the quotations in A415, see on Lk xxi 12—17 
15 the sign of abomination ‘of desolation’] ‘of desolation’ is illegible in S, 
and possibly was omitted: ‘Ephr’ v 222 has ‘the unclean sign’; 77 has 


‘the sign of the terror of its desolation’

8. MATTHEW XXIV 145 


“Now woe to them with child, and to them that are giving suck 
in those days! ‘But be praying ‘that your flight may not be in the 
winter nor on the sabbath.’ For there will be then great distress, 
the like of which hath not becn from the first habitation of the world 
until to-day, neither shall be. And if it had not [been that] those 
days were short no [flesh] would live, but because of the chosen ones 
those days will be shortened. Then if any one shall say to you ‘Lo, 
here is the Messiah ’—‘Lo, there he is ’—do not believe. For there 
will arise lying Messiahs and lying prophets and they will give great 
signs and wonders, so that if possible even the chosen ones they will 
lead astray. Lo, I beforehand have said to you, that if they shall say 
to you ‘Lo, he is in the desert’ do not go forth, or ‘Lo, he is in the 
inner chamber’ do not believe; ‘for as the lightning lighteneth from 
the east and is seen unto the west, so will be the coming of the Son 
of Man." Where the body /s, there will be gathered the vultures. 
“Now immediately after the distress of those days the sun will be 
darkened and the light of the moon will not shine, and the stars will 
fall from heaven and the powers of heaven will tremble, and then 
will be seen the signal of the Son of Man in heaven, and ye will 
see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven with great 
power and glory. And he will send his angels with a great trumpet 
and will gather his chosen from the four winds from across the 
heaven unto the other side. Now from the fig-tree learn a parable, 
that what ¢¢me its branches have become tender and its leaves are 
put forth ye know that the summer is near ; so ye also, what time ye 
have seen all these things, ye know that it hath drawn nigh to the 
door. Amen, I say to you that this generation will not pass away 
until all these things be. ‘Heaven and earth will pass away, and my 


words will not pass away."

S. MATTHEW XXIV, XXV 147 


“Now of the day and of that hour no one knoweth, not even the 
angels of heaven, but the Father only. For as it was in the days of 
Noah, so will be the coming of the Son of Man. For just as before 
the Flood they were eating and drinking and betrothing and being 
betrothed until Noah entered the ark, and they knew not until the 
Flood came and took them all away, so will be the coming of the Son 
of Man. Then two mex will be in the hill, one will be taken and one 
will be left ; and two women will be grinding at the mill, one to be 
taken and one left. 

“Be watchful, for that ye know not at which hour cometh your 
Lord. [And] this know, that if the master of the house were to know 
at which watch the thief would be coming, he would be watching and 
would not suffer that his house should be broken through. There- 
fore ye also be ready, for that in an hour that ye expect not will 
come the Son of Man. [Who then] is that [slave,] faithful and [wise], 
which his lord hath set up over his fellow-servants, that he may 
give them the ration of food in its time? Happy is it for that slave, 
whom if his lord come he shall find doing so. Amen, | say to you 
that he will give him authority over all that he hath. But if the 
evil slave say in his heart ‘My lord delayeth to come,’ and he 
begin to beat his fellow-servants, and be eating and drinking with 
the drunkards, the lord of that slave will come in a day that he doth 
not expect and in an hour that he doth not know, and will divide 
him and set his portion with the respecters of persons, and there 
shall be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth ! 

“Then will the kingdom of heaven be likened to ten virgins that 
took their torches and went forth to meet the bridegroom and the 


bride. Now five of them were foolish and five wise ; and the foolish

oil in the vessels with their torches. Now when the bridegroom 
delayed they all slumbered and slept, but in the middle of the night 
there was a cry: ‘Lo, the bridegroom cometh; go forth to meet 
him!’ Then arose all those virgins and trimmed their torches. 
The foolish ones say to the wise ones: ‘Give us of your oil, for lo, 
our torches are going out!’ The wise ones say to them: ‘Nay, lest 
it suffice not for us and for you; but go unto them that sell, and buy 
for yourselves.’ And while they were going to buy the bridegroom 
came, and they that were ready entered with him to the wedding- 
feast, and the door was shut. Now at the last came those virgins and 
say: ‘Our Lord, open to us!’ But he answered and said: ‘Amen, I 
say to you I know you not. Watch therefore, for that ye know not 
the day nor the hour. For as a man that set off on ¢ journey and

see thee that thou wast a stranger and gathered thee, or wast a naked te ܝ‎

and came unto thee?’ And he answered and said to them: ‘Amen, 

1 say to you [What] ye have done to one of these my brothers, my cf 4389 
little ones, to me it is ye have done it’ Then will he say to those 

on his left: ‘Go away from me, ye cursed, to the fire eternal which is 
prepared for the Accuser and for his angels. For I was hungry and 

ye did not give me to eat, I was thirsty and ye gave me not to 
drink, and I was a naked man and ye did not [clothe me], I was an 
infirm man and I was in prison and ye did not [visit] me.’ 1 

will they also answer and will say: ‘Our Lord, when did we see 

thee hungry, or thirsty, or a stranger, or naked, or infirm, or in 
prison, and did not serve thee?’ Then will he answer and will say to 
them: ‘Amen, I say to you That which to one of these little ones 


ye did not, to me also ye did ¢ not. And these will go to torment 





eternal, and the righteous to life eternal.” 7 14381

‘Go away from me, ye cursed, (om. ‘from me’ 4*) 

to the fire which is prepared for the Evil One and his angels, 
(42, 43) because these things ye did not to me.’ 
44 Then those also on his left answered and said to him 

‘When, our Lord, saw we thee in one of these things and did not serve thee?’ 
45 He saith to them: 

‘What ye did not to these needy ones neither to me, even me, ye did.’ 

(46) And the righteous that served the Messiah in the needy ones went to life eternal, 
and the wicked went to fire and darkness.

8. MATTHEW XXVI 135 


And it came to pass when he finished [these] his words 
[he said] to his disciples: “Ye know that [after] two days [it 
is] the Passover, and the Son [of Man] is delivered up [to be 
crucified].” Then were gathered together the chief [priests and the 
scribes] and the elders [of the people] to the court of the chief 
priest, and they were thinking that with guile [they should take hold 
of] Jesus and kill him, [but they were] saying “And not [on the 
Feast, that] there be [not an uproar] among the people.” And when 
Jesus was in Beth Ania in the house of Simon the leper there drew 
near a certain woman ; and she had a vase of oil of perfume, the price 
of which is dear, and she poured it on the head of Jesus as he sat at 
meat. Now his disciples saw, and said: “Wherefore is this waste? 
For this could have been sold for much and given [to the poor].” 
Now Jesus knew and said to them : “ Why weary +they+ the woman? 
A deed fair and good hath she done unto me. For there are the 
poor—at all times [they are] by you; [but I,] not at all times am 
I by you. Now this—that she hath cast this oil on my body—as if 
for my burial she hath done it. Amen, I say to you Wheresoever 
this my gospel shall be preached in all the world it will be spoken, 
even that which this [woman] hath done, for her memory.” 

Then went one of the Twelve, called Judas Scariot, unto the 
chief priests, and said to them: “What are ye willing to give, and I 
will deliver him up to you?” And they settled for him thirty pieces 
of silver ; and from then he was seeking for himself an opportunity 
that he should deliver him up. Now on the first day of the Un- 
leavened Bread the disciples of Jesus came near, and they say to 
him: “Where wilt thou that we make ready for thee that thou 
mayest eat the Passover?” He saith to them: “Go to the city unto 


such an one, and say to him: “Our Rabbi saith, ‘My time is near ; 





5 And not] S (sic) 10 weary ftheyt] S$; the pronoun which would 


have turned the teat into ‘weary ye’ is omitted, probably by accident

at thy house I do the Passover with my disciples.” And_ his 
disciples did as Jesus commanded them and made ready the Pass- 
over. And when it was evening he was sitting at meat by his 
Twelve ; and while they were eating he said to them: “Amen, I 
say to you One of you will betray me.” And it grieved them 
exceedingly, and they began to say each one of them: “Can it 
be I, my Lord?” He saith to them: “He which putteth forth 
his hand with me in the bowl, he will betray me. And the Son of 
Man goeth as is written of him, but woe to that man by whose hand 
I am betrayed; it were profitable for him if he had not been 
born!” And Judas the betrayer answered and said: “Can it be J, 
Rabbi?” He saith to him: “Thou hast said 7t.” And while they 
were eating $Jesus took bread and blessed God over it, and brake 
and gave to his disciples, and said: “Take, eat; this is my body.” 
And he took a cup and gave thanks over it, and gave to them and 
said: “Take, drink of it all of you; this is my blood, the new 
covenant, that is shed for many to forgiveness of sins.1 For I say 
to you that I shall not drink from now of the fruit of the vine, until 
the day that I shall drink it with you new in the kingdom of my 
Father.” And when they had glorified God they went to the Mount 
of Olives. Then said Jesus to them: “ All of you will be offended 
in me in this night, for it is written ‘I will smite the shepherd 
and the lambs of his flock will be scattered’ And what teme I have 
arisen, I go before you to Galilee.” 

Simon Kepha answered and said: “If all of them shall be 
offended in thee, I for ever will not be offended in thee.” Jesus

saith to him: “Amen, I say to thee In this night, before ever the 
cock crow, three times thou wilt deny me.” Simon Kepha saith to 
him: “If it shall be for me to die with thee, I will not deny thee.” 
And the disciples all of them also so said. Then came Jesus with 
them to the place called Gysmani. He saith to his disciples: “Sit 
here, while I go and pray.” And he took Simon and the two sons of 
Zebedee, and he had begun to be gloomy and to be anxious. Then 
saith he to them: “Lo, it doth grieve my soul even unto death ; re- 
main here and watch with me.’ And he removed from them a little, 
and fell on his face and was praying, and he was saying : “’My Father, 
that if it can be that this cup should pass from me‘—nevertheless not 
my will, mine, be done, but thine!” And he came unto his disciples 
and found them sleeping, and he said to Simon: “So not even one 
hour have ye been able to watch with me? Watch and Spray that ye 
enter not into temptation ;1 the spirit is willing, but the body is 
infirm.” Again for the second time he went to pray, and saith: 
“My Father, if this cup cannot pass but if I drink it, thy will be 
done!” And he came again and found them sleeping, because their 
eyes with sleep were heavy; and he left them and went to pray for 
the third time, and again thus he said. Then came he unto his 
disciples, and said to them: “Sleep then and take your ease ; for lo, 
the hour is nigh, and the Son of Man is betrayed into the hands 
of the sinners. Arise, let us go hence; he that betrayeth me hath 
arrived.” 

While yet he was speaking, lo, Judas, one of the Twelve, came, 
and with him a great multitude with swords and staves from the 
chief priests and the elders of the people. Now Judas the betrayer 


gave them a sign and said “That one which I kiss, him take hold

of.” And he drew near unto Jesus and kissed him and said to him: 
“Hail, Rabbi!” But Jesus said to him: “For what thast thout 
come, my comrade?” Then they drew near and laid hands upon 
him, and took hold of Jesus. And lo, one of the disciples of Jesus 
put forth his hand and drew a sword, and smote the chief priest’s 
lad and took off his ear. Then $Jesus said to him: “Put back the 
sword into its place," for all they that take up the sword by the sword 
will perish. ‘Or dost thou suppose that I cannot beseech my Father, 
and he would give me more than twelve legions of angels? But how 
would the Scriptures be fulfilled, that so it ought to be?” In that 
hour said Jesus to the multitudes: “As against a robber have ye 
come forth against me with swords and with staves to take hold 
of me! Daily in the Temple I was sitting and teaching, and ye did 
not take hold of me. Now all these things that have come to pass 
are that the Scriptures of the Prophets might be fulfilled.” 

Then his disciples all of them left him and fled. And those others 
took hold of him and carried him along unto Caiapha the chief 
priest, where were gathered the Scribes and the elders of the people. 
Now Simon was going after him from afar even unto the court of the 
chief priest, and he entered into the midst and was sitting with the 
attendants that he might see the last. And all the synagogue were 
seeking [against him, even] Jesus, witnesses, so that they might put 
him to death, and found them not. And there came many witnesses 
of falsehood, and they did not find how to + +. At the last came two 
others, witnesses of falsehood, and they say: “This man said ‘I am 
able to pull down this Temple, and in three days to build it.’” And 
the chief priest arose and said to him: “Givest thou no answer?

8. MATTHEW XXVI, XXVII 163 


What are these bearing witness against thee?” Now Jesus was silent. 
The chief priest answered and said to him: “I adjure thee by the 
Living God, that thou say to us if thou art the Messiah, the 
Son of God!” He saith to him: “Thou hast said ét. I say to you 
From now ye will see the Son of Man sitting on the right hand of 
Power and coming on the clouds of heaven.” Then the chief priest 
rent his things and said: “He hath blasphemed ; why yet is there 
required for us witnesses? Lo, ye have heard from his mouth the 
blasphemy. What « will ye?” They answered [all of them] and said 
“He is guilty of death.” Then [they drew near] to [him] and spat in 
his face and were buffeting him [and mocking at him], but others 
were slapping his cheeks and saying : “ Prophesy to us, Messiah, who 
is it hath smitten thee?” 

Now Simon was sitting outside in the court, and a certain maid 
drew near and saith to him: “And thou also wast with Jesus the 
Galilean.” But he denied in the sight of all and said: “TI know not 
what thou sayest, neither am I acquainted.” And when he went forth 
to the door of the court another saw him, and she saith to them: 
“This one was with Jesus the Nazarene.” And again he denied and 
sware “I know him not, this man.” And after a little those 
standing by drew near, and they said to Simon: “Truly thou art of 
them, for thy speech also is like.” Then he began to asseverate and 


, 


to swear “I know him not, this man”; 


> 


and in the same hour the 
cock crew. And Simon remembered the word of Jesus, that he had 
said to him “Before ever the cock crow, three times thou \.ilt deny 
me”; and when he went forth outside he wept bitterly. 

And when day dawned all the chief priests and the elders of the 
people took counsel against Jesus that they should put him to death ; 
and they bound him and carried him along and delivered him up to 
Pilate the governor.

8. MATTHEW XXVII 165 


Then when Judas the betrayer saw that he was condemned he S 
changed his mind and returned those thirty pieces of silver to the chief 
priests and to the elders, and said: “I have sinned that I betrayed 
the blood of the righteous!” They say to him: “What és ? to us? 
Thou wilt know.” But he threw the silver into the Temple and 
departed and he went and hanged himself and was strangled. Now 
the chief priests took up the silver, and say: “It is not lawful to put 
it into the offertory, because it is the price of blood.” And they took 
counsel and bought of it the Potter’s Field, the field of the tombs of 
the strangers. Therefore that hath been called Field of Blood unto 
this day. Then was fulfilled that which was said by the prophet, who 
had said “TI took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of the dear 
one that I held more dear than the sons of Israel, and I gave them 
for the Potter’s Field, as the LoRD commanded me.” 

Now Jesus stood before the governor, and he asked him and said 
to him: “Art thou the king of the Jews?” Jesus saith to him: 
“Thou hast said 7.” And while the chief priests and the Pharisees 
were accusing him he was giving not any answer to them. Then 
said Pilate to him: “Hearest thou not how many witnesses are 
bearing witness against thee?” But he gave no answer to him, and 
exceedingly was the governor wondering. Now at every Feast the 
governor was wont that he should be releasing to the people one 
prisoner, whichever they were wishing for; and there had been 
imprisoned by them one well-known man whose name was Jesus 
Bar Abba; he was lying in prison because of evil deeds that he 
had done, and he had committed murder. And while all the Jews 
were gathered together Pilate saith to them: “Whom will ye that 
I release to you—Jesus Bar Abba, or Jesus called the Messiah ?” 
For he knew that it was because of envy they delivered him up to 
him. And while he awas sitting at the tribunal, his wife sendeth word 
to him and saith to him: “Have thou naught to do with that 
righteous one! For much have I suffered this day in my dream 
because of him.” 

Now the chief priests and the elders persuaded the people that

S. MATTHEW XXVII 167 


they should ask for Bar Abba and destroy Jesus. ‘The governor 
answered and said to them: “Whom wish ye that I should release 
to you?” They say to him: “Bar Abba.” Pilate saith to them: 
“And what shall I do to Jesus called the Messiah?” They say 
all of them: “Let him be crucified.” He saith to them: “Why? 
For what evil hath been done by him?” Then the more were they 
crying out and saying: “Let him be crucified.” Now when Pilate 
saw that nothing it gained him, but how much [more] the uproar 
indeed increased, he took water and washed his hands in the sight of 
all the multitude, and saith: “I am innocent of this blood ; ye know 
at.” And all the people answered and they said: “The blood of this 
one be on us and on our sons!” Then he released to them Bar Abba, 
and scourged with a whip Jesus, and delivered him up to them 
that he should be crucified. Then the soldiers of the governor 
brought in Jesus to the Praetorium, and they gathered against him 
a multitude, and they clothed him in garments of scarlet and of 
purple, and plaited a crown of thorns and set ¥ on his head, and 
made him hold a reed in his right hand, and they knelt on their 
knees before him, and were mocking at him and saying: “Hail to 
thee, king of the Jews!” And they spat in his face and took up the 
reed and were smiting him upon his head. And when they had 
mocked at him they stripped him of those garments that he was 
clothed with, and clothed him in his garments and led him away 
and went to crucify him. Now while going forth they found a 
man, a Cyrenian whose name was Simon, and they compelled him 
that he should take up his cross. And they came to the place 
called Gagultha; and they gave him to drink wine mixed with 
myrrh, and he tasted it and would not drink it. And when they 
crucified him they divided his clothes and drew lots for them ; and 
they were sitting and keeping watch there. And while they were 
sitting they wrote the trespass and set it over his head: “Jesus, the 
King of the Jews.” 

Then were crucified with him two evil-doers, one on his right 
and one on his left. And those that were passing by were blaspheming 
against him and wagging their heads and saying: “Puller down of 





24 how much "more’] or, ‘how much ‘indeed'’ 34 wine mixed with 
myrrh] ‘And they gave him to drink vinegar and gall’ 7 37 Jesus, 


the King of the Jews] ‘This is the Christ, the King of the Jews’ 79

the Temple and builder of it in three days, if thou art the Son of S$ 


God save thyself alive and come down from the cross!” And the 
chief priests also, like the Scribes and the Pharisees, were mocking 
at him and were reproaching him and saying “He that saveth others 
alive, himself could he not save alive? If he is the King of Israel, let 
him come down now from the cross and we shall believe in him. He 
hath trusted in God,—let him deliver him now if he is pleased with 
him ; for he said ‘I am the son of God.” And those evil-doers also 


5 that were crucified with him like the rest were reproaching him. And 


from the sixth hour there was darkness on all the land unto the 
ninth hour, and at the ninth hour Jesus exclaimed with a mighty 
voice and said: “Eli, Eli, wherefore hast thou left me?” 

And those folk that were standing there, when they heard if, say : 
“This man for Elijah bath called!” And in the same hour one of 
them ran and took a sponge and dipped it in vinegar and stuck 7é on 
a reed and handed ¢¢ for him to drink. But others say: “Let be ; 
we shall see if Elijah cometh and saveth him alive.” Now Jesus 
cried out with a loud voice, and his spirit went up. And in the 
same hour was rent the veil of the Sanctuary from the very top, and 
the earth quaked and the stones were rent and the tombs were 
opened, and many bodies of the righteous which were asleep arose 
and went forth from the tombs after his resurrection aud came to 
the Holy City and appeared to many. 

Now the centurion and they that were keeping watch with him 
upon Jesus, when they saw the earthquake and the things that came 
to pass, feared exceedingly, and say: “Truly this is the Son of God!” 

And there were there many women, and from afar they were 
seeing, which were coming after Jesus from Galilee and were serving 


him—Mary Magdalene, and Mary daughter of James and mother of

‘God, my God’; in the second the better Ms has ‘Eli, Eli, but the other has 
‘El, El,’ as in syr.vg 49. There is no Syriac evidence for the insertion 
here of words corresponding to Joh xix 34. The spear-piercing is mentioned

Joseph, and the mother of the sons of Zebedee. And when it was 
evening there drew near a certain rich man from Ramtha, and his 
name was Joseph and he also was a disciple of Jesus,—this man 
drew near to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus, and Pilate 
commanded that it should be given to him. And when Joseph took 
the body he wrapped it in a new linen cloth and laid it in a new 
tomb of his, a hewn one that had been hewn for him in the rock, 
and he laid one great stone against the door of the tomb and 
went away. 

And there were there Mary Magdalene and the other Mary, and 
they were sitting opposite the tomb. Now the next day after the 
Friday the chief priests and the Pharisees were gathered together 
unto Pilate, and they say to him: “Our Lord, we have remembered 
that that deceiver was saying when he was alive ‘After three days 
I arise’; but Scommand them to take heed to the grave™ until three 
days are past, that his disciples may not come in the night and steal 
him away, and say to the people that he hath risen from among 
the dead, and the last error be worse than the first.” 

Pilate saith to them: “Ye have a guard; go, take heed to the 
grave as ye know how.” They went and took heed to his grave and 
they sealed that stone with the guard. Now in the evening on the 
sabbath that was dawning into the first day of the week came Mary 
Magdalene and the other Mary, that they might see the grave. And 
lo, there was a great earthquake, because the angel of the LoRD came 
down from heaven, and he rolled away the stone and sat upon it ; 
and his appearance was like to lightning and his clothing as the 
snow, and for fear of him trembled those that were keeping watch 


as the dead. The angel answered and said to the women: “Ye

The invocation of the Trinity at Baptism is attested by the Acts of Thomas

(p. 496). The most striking formula is that in the Acts of Thomas 324, as pre- 
served in the 6th century palimpsest frayments at Sinai (Studia Stnaitica 1x 34), viz:

(pp. 193, 301, 324), by the Doctrine of Addai (pp. 20, 30, 34), and by 
Aphraates (p. 496). The most striking formula is that in the Acts of 
Thomus 324, as preserved in the 6th century palimpsest fragments at Sinai 
(Studia Sinaitica ix 34), eis: ©“ He (Thomas) made them go down to the 
water and said to them ‘In the Name of Father and Son and holy 
Spirit—in thy Name, Heavenly Speech.’” A phrase almost identical with 
that translated ‘Heavenly Speech’ occurs again in these Acts, p. 250. 

But there is nothing to shew that these passages are not based on 
Liturgical rather than direct Biblical authority, except the Doctrine of 
Addai 20, which says: “Thus were we commanded by Him, that we 
should baptize and absolve them that believe in the name of the Father 
and the Son and the Holy Spirit.”

the Spirit sent him forth into the wilderness ; and he was there forty 
days being tempted by Satan, and he was with the beasts, and angels 
were serving him. 

And after that John was delivered up Jesus came to Galilee, and 
he was preaching the gospel of God, saying “The time is ac- 
complished and the kingdom of God hath arrived ; repent ye, and 
believe in his gospel.” And while he was walking by the side of the 
lake of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew his brother casting their 
nets into the sea, because they were fishers. And Jesus said to 
them : “Come after me, and I will make you fishers of men”; and in 
the same hour they left their nets and went after him. And when 
he walked on again a little he saw James the son of Zebedee and 
John his brother also sitting in the boat and mending their nets ; 
and in the same hour he called them, and they left Zebedee their 
father with the hired men in the boat and went after him. 

And he was teaching on the sabbath in the synagogue, and they 
were astonished at his teaching, for as one authorised he was teaching 
and not as their scribes. And there was in that same synagogue 
of theirs a man in whom there was an unclean spirit, and he was 
crying out and saying: “What have we to do with thee, Jesus the 
Nazarene? Hast thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou 
art, that thou art the Holy One of God!” And Jesus rebuked him 
and said to him: “Shut thy mouth and go forth from him.” And 
that unclean spirit threw him down, and when it had cried out with a 


mighty voice it went forth from him. And astonishment was taking

new teaching, that he hath authority and commandeth the unclean 
spirits, and they obey him?” And the tale of him was going forth 
in all the region of Galilee, and many were going after him. And 
he went forth from the synagogue and they came to the house of 
Simon Kepha and of Andrew, and James and John were with him. 
And the mother-in-law of Simon was infirm with fever, and they said 
to him about her. And he drew near and took hold of her and 
raised her up, and in the same hour the fever left her, and she arose 
and was serving them. Now at the setting of the sun they were 
bringing all them that were ill with hard infirmities, and the city 
was all gathered together at his door and he had healed many, and 
was casting out many devils and was not suffering them to speak, 
because they knew him. 

And at the early dawn he came forth and went to a desert place, 
and there he was praying. And Simon and those with him were 
seeking him, and when they found him they say to him: “Many folk 
were seeking thee.” He saith to them: “Come away; let us go to the 
villages and to the cities that are near, and there also will I preach, 
for it is to this end I have come.’ And he was preaching in all the 
synagogues of Galilee and was casting out devils. And there came 
unto him a certain leper and he was beseeching him, and he fell at 
his feet and said to him “If thou wilt, thou canst cleanse me.” 
Now Jesus had compassion on him and stretched forth his hand and 
touched him, and said to him: “I will, be thou cleansed.” And in 
the same hour he was cleansed. And he rebuked him and said:

And it came to pass on the sabbath-day he was walking among

Pharisees say to him: “Wherefore do thy disciples on the sabbath 
that which is not lawful?” He saith to them: “Have ye never read

because of man was created, therefore the Lord of the sabbath is the 
Son of Man.” 

And he entered again into the synagogue, and there was there a 
man whose hand was withered ; and they were watching him, whether 
he would heal him on the sabbath, that they might accuse him. He 
saith to that man whose hand was withered: “Stand up in the midst.”

Herodians went forth and took counsel that they might destroy him. 
And Jesus went away with his disciples to the sea, and great 
multitudes from Galilee and from Judaea and from Jerusalem and 
from the other side of the Jordan and from Tyre and from Sidon 
that were hearing everything that he did, came unto him. And he 
had said to his disciples that they should bring near to him a boat 
because of the multitudes, that they should not press upon him. 
For many was he healing, and many were pressed together [that they 
might touch] him. And those on whom were plagues of unclean 
spirits were falling before him and were crying out and saying: 
“Thou art the Son of God!” And much was he rebuking them that 


they should not recognise him.

8. MARK III 181 


And he went up into the hill, and he had called whom he would, 
and they went unto him. And he chose from them twelve to be by 
him, that he might be sending them preaching, and that they might 
be authorised to heal the infirm and cast out devils. And he called 
Simon, Kepha ; and James the son of Zebedee and John his brother, 
he called them ‘Bénai-Ragsh’; and Andrew, and Philip, and Bar- 
tholomew, and Matthew, and Thomas, and James the son of Halphaeus, 
and Thaddaeus, and Simon the Cananaean, and Judas Scariot the 
betrayer. 

And he had come to the house, and the multitude came again 
unto him, so that not even bread could they eat. And when his 
brothers heard they had gone forth to take hold of him, for they 
were saying “He hath gone out of his mind.” And the scribes 
which [from] Jerusalem came down were saying: “Beelzebub is in 
him, and by the chief of the devils doth [this fellow cast out] devils.” 

And [Jesus] spoke [with them] in similitudes and said: “Satan 
cannot cast out Satan. And if a kingdom against itself be divided, 
that kingdom cannot stand ; and if a house against itself be divided, 
that house cannot stand. And if Satan against himself hath been 
divided, he cannot stand but it is the conclusion of him. No one can 
enter the house of the strong man and seize his things, except 
first he bind the strong man and then [he will seize] his things. 
[Amen,] amen, I say to you All sins that they blaspheme shall 
be forgiven to men, [but] every one that blasphemeth [against] 
the Holy Spirit [shall] not [be forgiven + + + [ sins for ever.” 


For that they were saying “An unclean spirit is in him.” 





17 Bénai-Ragsh] or, ‘Sons of Ragshy,’ the final y being unsounded, 
The same transliteration is retained in syt.vg. Arm. vg has ‘Banereges’ 
29 not "be forgiven’ * * * sins for ever] The full restoration would be ‘not 
"be forgiven for ever but is guilty of' sins for ever’, but this is exactly one 
line too long (cf Joh viii 47”); ‘shall be guilty of the eternal sin’ 77754 In 
the word for ‘sin’ the difference in writing between the sing. and the plur. 
does not only depend on the presence or absence of diacritic points (ef Joh ix 41), 
according to the usage of this version.

[And when] his mother [and his brothers came] standing [outside] 
they sent + + he was sitting + *; and when they say: 
“Lo, thy mother and thy brothers [are standing] outside and seeking 
for thee,” he saith to them: “Who is my mother, or my brothers?” 
And he looked on them that were sitting by him, and said: “Lo, 
my mother! and lo, my brothers! For every man that doeth the 
will of God, he is my brother and my sister and my mother.” Again 
he had begun teaching by the lake, and there had gathered 
together unto him a great multitude ; and he [went up and] sat in 
the boat in the lake, and all the multitude was standing by the lake, 
and he was teaching them much in similitudes. And while he was 
teaching them [he said]: “ Hear ye ; lo, the sower went forth to sow. 
And when he sowed, some fell by the way-side and the birds came 
and ate it. And some fell on the rock and it sprang up ; and because 
there was no depth of land under their roots, * * * 
the sun that was upon them, and it withered. And some fell 
among thorns, and the thorns came up with it and choked it, and 
fruit it did not give. And some fell on good 18110 and gave fruit 
[and grew up] and gave thirty-fold and sixty-fold and an hundred- 
fold.” And he was saying “He that hath ears to hear, let him 
hear.” 

And when he was [alone], his disciples asked him about those 
similitudes. And he was saying to them “To you is given the 
mystery of the kingdom of God, but to those outside everything in 
similitudes cometh to pass, that though seeing they may not see, 
and though hearing they may hearing not understand, lest they 
repent and their sins be forgiven them.” And he saith to them: 
“Ve know it not, this similitude? And how will it be with all 
the similitudes that ye will know? The sower—the word he 
soweth. Now those by the way-side, those are they that hear the 
word, and what time they have heard Satan cometh and taketh 
away the word that is sown in their heart. And those on the 


rock, those are they that what time they hear the word with joy

And he came to the other side of the sea to the land of the 
Gergesenes. And when he came up from the boat there met him a 
certain man in whom was an unclean spirit that was dwelling in the 
tombs, and no man was able with chains to bind him, because often 
the fetters and chains he used to break and go forth, and no man 
was able to chastise him. And at all times by night and day in the 
tombs and in the hills he was crying out and was wounding himself 
with stones. And when he saw Jesus from afar he ran and worshipped 
him and cried out with a mighty voice and said: “What have I to do 
with thee, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I adjure thee by God 
that thou torture me not.” For he was saying to him “Go forth, 
thou unclean spirit, from the man.” And he was asking him “What 
is thy name?” And he saith to him: “Legion is our name, because 
we are many.” And those devils were beseeching him that he would 
not send them forth out of the country. Now there was there by the 
hills a great herd of swine that was feeding, and those devils were 
beseeching him “Send us into those swine and we will enter into 
them.” And he permitted them; and when those unclean spirits 
went forth, they entered into the swine, and the herd ran and fell 
into the midst of the sea, about two thousand, and were choked in 
the sea. And they that were tending them fled and said the news in 
the cities and in the villages also, and they went forth to see what was 
come to pass. And they came unto Jesus, and saw him from whom 
he had cast out the devil [sitting] and clad and modest, and they were 
afraid. And those that saw declared to them how it befel him [in

was beseeching him that he might be with him, and he suffered him 
not, but said to him: “Go to thy house unto thy kinsfolk, and shew

8. MARK VI 189 


And they had gone forth preaching that men should repent, and 
many devils were they casting out, and were anointing with oil many, 
and were healing the infirm. And Herod the king heard, for his fame 
had become known to him well, and he said: “It is John the Baptist; 
he hath risen from among the dead, therefore great is his power.” 
But others said “It is Elijah”; but others say “It is a prophet 
like one of the prophets.’ But when Herod heard, he said: “This 
John, he whose head I cut off, hath risen.” For Herod sent and 
laid hold of John and bound him in prison because of Herodia the 
wife of Philip his brother, in that he had taken her. For John was 
saying to Herod “It is not lawful for thee to take thy brother's 
wife.’ Then Herodia was threatening him and was wishing to kill 
him, and could not. For Herod was afraid of that same John, for he 
knew Aim for a righteous man and a holy, and was protecting him, 
and many things that he used to hear from him he did, and gladly 
used to hear him. And it chanced on the day of Herod’s birth- 
day that he had made a supper for his nobles and for his chiliarchs 
and for the chiefs of Galilee, and the daughter of Herodia came 
in and danced, and she pleased Herod and those sitting at meat 
with him. And the king said to the girl: “ Ask of me, and I will give 
to thee unto the half of my kingdom.” And he sware to her with 
an oath. And the girl went out, ad took counsel with her mother, 
saying : “What shall ask?” She saith to her: “The head of John 
the Baptist.” And she came in at once unto the king, and saith to 
him : “I will that thou give me this very hour the head of John the 
Baptist in a dish.” And it much grieved the king, and yet for the 
oath’s sake and for the sake of them that sat at meat he could not 
turn back. And he sent a soldier of his guard to cut off and bring his 
head. And he went and cut off his head in the prison and brought 
it in a dish, and he gave it to the girl and the girl carried it away to 
her mother. And when his disciples heard, they came and took up 
his corpse, and laid it in a tomb. And the apostles came unto Jesus 
and declared to him all that thet did and taught. 





22 the daughter of Herodia] so also 7 30 thet did and taught] 
probably a mere error of S for ‘they did and taught’, the pronunciation 
being the same in Syriac

8. MARK VI 191 


And he said to them: “Come, let us go to the wilderness ourselves 
alone, and take your ease a little.” Many were going and coming 
unto him, and they had no place even bread to eat. And they went 
to a desert place in the boat themselves alone. And many saw them 
and recognised them, and went by land after him from all the cities. 
And when they came and he saw a great multitude he had com- 
passion upon them in that they were like to sheep which have no 
shepherd, and he had begun to teach them. And when it began to 
be evening his disciples drew near and say to him: “The place is 
desert and the time is past; dismiss those folk that they may go to 
these villages that are round us and buy for themselves somewhat to 
” He saith to them: “Give ye them to eat.” They say to him: 
“Shall we go and buy for a hundred denars bread, and bring to 
them as they eat?” He saith to them: “Go, see how many pieces of 
bread there are with you.” They say to him: “Five pieces of bread 
and two fishes.” And he commanded them that they should all sit 
at meat on the green grass, and they sat down to meat companies by 
companies of hundreds by hundreds and by fifty ; and he took those 
five pieces of bread and the two fishes. And he looked up to heaven 
and blessed and brake the bread, and gave to his disciples that they 
should set dé for them, and those two fishes they divided to all. 
And they all ate and were satisfied, and they took up from before

them the fragments, twelve baskets full of the superabundance of 
these five loaves and of those two fishes. Now those that ate of them 
were five thousand men. 

And immediately he commanded his disciples that they should go 
up into the boat, that they should go before him to Beth Saida while 
yet he was dismissing that multitude. And when he dismissed them, 
he had gone to the hill to pray. Now when it was evening and the 
boat was in the midst of the lake and he alone was on the land, and 
when he saw them tormented from fear of the waves because the 
wind was against them, he came unto them walking on the water and 


was wishing that he should pass them. When they saw him on the

water and walking they supposed it was a devil, and when they all 
saw him they gave a cry. And in the same hour he spake with them, 
and said to them: “Be assured; it is I, be not afraid.” And he 
went up unto them to the boat, and the wind ceased. And they 
were wondering among themselves, for they had not perceived from 
the bread, because their heart was blind. And when they crossed 
over they went up to the land of Gennesar. And when he went up 
from the boat, in that same hour that they perceived him they sent 
to all the district, and brought those that were ill, carrying them in 
beds. And wheresoever Jesus was entering, into cities or villages or 
farmsteads, in the streets they were laying the beds of the infirm, 
and they were beseeching him even if the skirt of his cloak they 
might touch; and all that were touching lived. And there were 
gathered together unto him Pharisees and scribes that came from 
Jerusalem, and they saw his disciples eating bread with unwashen 
hands. Because all the Jews and the Pharisees, except they wash their 
hands, do not eat bread, who hold the tradition of the elders ; and 
from the street, except they baptize themselves, they eat not, and 
many things which they received they used to keep, and baptisms of 
cups and pots. And after these things the scribes and Pharisees asked 
him, and say to him “Wherefore do thy disciples not keep the com- 
mandment of our ancients? for they wash not their hands and eat 
bread.” Jesus saith to them: “Well did Isaiah the prophet prophesy 
of you, as it is written that he had said ‘This people with its lips 
honoureth me, but in its heart it is far from me; but in vain do they 
fear me, that teach a teaching of commandments of men. Well 
do ye, in that ye leave the commandment of God that ye may 
set up your commandments. For Moses said ‘Honour thy father 
and thy mother, and he that curseth his father and his mother

Barsalibi on Mt xiv 26, who says: “‘It was a false vision’ (so syr.vg in 
both places for pdvracpa éorw). From Holy St Ephraim:—‘For they 
supposed that it was a devil.” Mdsinger 135 has: ‘ipsi autem opinabantur

shall indeed die’ But ye say that if he shall say to his father and his 
mother ‘J¢¢s an offering what thou shalt be profited from me— and 
ye suffer him not to honour his father or his mother! And ye reject 
the word of God because of your commandments. 

“And many things like these ye do.” And he called all the 


multitude and said to them: “Hear all of you and be persuaded ! 


5 There is nothing which being outside a man and entering into him 


can defile him, but that which goeth forth from a man, that it is 
defileth the man. He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.” 

And when he was entering the house from the multitude his 
disciples had asked him about the similitude. But he said to them: 
“So even ye are stubborn? Do ye not perceive at all, that not 
anything that entereth the man defileth him? Because not the heart 
doth it enter but the belly, and it is thrown away and cleansed— 
teven all meat.+ But that which cometh forth from a man, that it is 
defileth the man. For from the heart come forth the evil thoughts of 
men ; adultery, fornication, murder, theft, covetousness, ill-will, guile, 
lasciviousness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, folly,—all of them evil, 
—from within come forth and defile the man.” And he arose and 
went away to the border of Tyre; and when he entered a house he was 
not wishing that any one should know of him, and he could not be 
concealed. And when a woman whose daughter had an unclean spirit 
heard, she came and fell down before him. The woman wasa twidowT 
from the border of Tyre of Phoenicia, and she was beseeching him that 
he would cast out the spirit from her daughter. Jesus saith to her: 
“Suffer first the sons to be satisfied. It is not well to take the 
sons’ bread and to cast zt to the dogs.” The woman saith to him:

and she was lying in the bed. And again [when] he went forth from 
the border of Tyre [and] Sidon he came to the lake of Galilee between 
the border of the Ten Cities. And they brought to him a certain 
inarticulate deaf-mute, and they were beseeching him that he would 
lay on him his hand. And he drew him from the multitude, and he 


put his fingers and spat in his ears and touched his tongue and looked 


5 up to heaven and groaned and said to him: “Be opened!” And in 


the same hour his ears were opened and the bond of 118 tongue was 
loosed and he had spoken easily. And he commanded them that to 
no one they should say dé; and the more that he was commanding 
them, they the rather were preaching him. And all the more were 
they wondering and saying “Everything he doeth well, and the 
deaf-mutes he maketh that they hear and speak!” Now in those 
same days again, when there was a great multitude and they had not 
what they should eat, he called his disciples and said to them: 
“T have compassion on this multitude, for lo, three days they have 
remained by me and there is not what they may eat, and if so be 
that I should dismiss them fasting to their houses they would be 
fainting on the way ; and some of them from far have come.” His 
disciples say to him: “Whence canst thou here satisfy them with 
bread in the desert?” And he asked them and saith to them: 
“How many pieces of bread have ye?” They say to him: “Seven.” 
And he commanded the multitude that they should sit down to meat 
on the ground. And he took those seven pieces of bread and blessed 
and brake and gave to his disciples that they should set before them, 
and they set them before the multitude. And there were a few 
fishes ; and upon them also having blessed, he said that they should 
set them before them. And they ate and were satisfied, and they 
took up the superabundance of the fragments seven panniers. The

folk that ate were about four thousand ; and he dismissed them. 
And he went up and sat in the boat with his disciples, and they came 
to the hill of Magadan. And the Pharisees came forth and began 
beseeching him and asking him for a sign from heaven, tempting 
him. He was excited in spirit and said : “Why doth this generation 
seek a sign? Amen, I say to you that a sign shall not be given 
to this generation.” And he left them again and sat in the boat, and 
went to the other side of the lake. And they forgot to take with 
them any bread, for not one loaf was there with them in the boat. 
And he commanded them and said to them: “Beware of the leaven 
of the Pharisees and of the leaven of Herod.” And they were 
thinking one with another and saying “There is no bread.” Now 
Jesus knew and said to them: “Why think ye that ye have no 
bread? Not until now do ye know nor understand? Until now is 
your heart blinded, and eyes have ye and see not, and ears have ye 
and hear not? And do ye not recollect those five pieces of bread 
that five thousand ate of, and how many baskets of fragments full 
” They say to him: “Twelve.” He saith to them: 
“And when there were seven for four thousand how many panniers of 
fragments took ye up?” They say [to him]: “Seven.” He saith to 
them : “Not until now do ye understand ?” 

And he came to Beth Saida; and they brought to him a blind 
man, and they were beseeching him that he would touch him. And 
he took holdt of the hand of the blind man and brought him forth 
out of the village, and he spat in his eyes and laid his hand and asked 
him and saith to him: “What twiltt thou see?” [And he saith:] 


“T have [seen] men as trees walking.” And again he laid his hand 


[took ye up?] 


on his eyes, [and he saw] and was restored and was seeing everything

clearly. And he sent him to his house and said to him “Not even S 


into the village shalt thou enter.” 

And Jesus went forth, and his disciples, to the villages of Caesarea 
of Philip, and he was asking his disciples in the way, and saith to 
them “What say folk of me that lam?” They say to him “There 
are that say ‘It is John the Baptist, and others say ‘Elijah,’ and 
others ‘One of the prophets.” He saith to them: “And ye, what 
say ye that Tam?” Kepha saith to him: “Thou art the Messiah.” 
And he rebuked them, that to no man should they say é¢ of him. 
And he had begun to teach them, saying “The Son of Man is about 
to suffer much, and be rejected by the elders and by the chief priests 
and by the scribes, and they will kill him, and the third day he will 
rise and openly speak the word.” Now Simon Kepha, as if pitying 
him said to him “Be it far from thee!” And when he had turned 
himself he looked on his disciples, and rebuked Kepha and said: 
“Get thee behind me, Satan, for that thou dost not give thought to 
the things of God, but of men.” 

And he called the multitude with his disciples and said to them : 
“He that willeth to come after me, let him deny himself and take up 
his cross and come. For every one that willeth to save his life shall 
lose it, and every one that shall lose his life because of my gospel shall 
save it. For what shall a man be profited, if so be that he should 
inherit the whole world and lack his life? And what shall a man 
give in exchange for his life? For every one that shall be ashamed 
of me and of my words among the sons of this adulterous and sinful 
generation, the son of a man also shall be ashamed of him what time 
he cometh in the glory of his Father, and the holy angels.” He had 
said to them: “Amen, I say to you that there are here some of 
these that stand by, that shall not taste death until they see the 
kingdom of God that cometh in power.” And after six days Jesus 
took Kepha and James and John and brought them up to a high hill

alone, and he was transfigured before them, and he became gleaming ܪ‎ 


and his clothing became whitened as the snow ; and there appeared 
to them Moses and Elijah speaking with him. Kepha answered 
and said to Jesus: “Rabbi, it was well that we should be here ; and 
we will make three dwellings, for thee one and for Moses one and for 
Elijah one.” And he knew not what he was saying, because fear had 
fallen upon him. And a cloud was overshadowing him, and a voice 
came from the cloud: “This is my son beloved; hear ye him!” 
And suddenly again when his disciples saw, no one appeared to them 
save Jesus alone. While they were coming down from the hill he 
was commanding them, that to no one they should say aught that 
they had seen, save what time the Son of Man hath risen from among 
the dead. And the word they took hold of as with themselves they 
were meditating and saying “What is then this word that he saith 
‘What time he hath risen from among the dead’ ?” 

And they were asking him, and saying “The scribes say that 
Elijah cometh first.” He answered and said to them: “ Elijah cometh 
first that he may restore everything. And how is it written of the 
Son of Man? is it not that he should suffer much and be crucified ? 
But I say to you that Elijah hath come, and they did with him all 
that they would, as it is written of him.” When he came unto his 
disciples they saw by them a great multitude and scribes seeking a 
dispute with them. And in the same hour when they saw him they 
were amazed, and ran and greeted him. And he was asking them 
“What seek ye with them?” And one out of the multitude answered 
and said: “Teacher, I have brought unto thee my son, who hath a 
spirit, and wheresoever it overtaketh him it casteth [him] down and 
he foameth and gnasheth his teeth and pineth away ; and I said to 
thy disciples that they should cast it out, and they could not.” Jesus 
answered and said to them: “Ah faithless generation! until when 
shall I be with you and endure you? Bring me thy son.” And he 
brought him unto him, and when he saw him the spirit cast him 





10 as] or, ‘though’ 15 ran and greeted] cf Diat*” xxiv 26: ‘and 
the folk when they saw Jesus were amazed (leg. Sole instead of ‘9)le), 
and in the midst of their joy ran and greeted him.’ This seems to imply 
a conflation of the readings mpooxaipovres and mpootpéxovres

down in the same hour, and he fell on the earth and wallowed 
foaming. And Jesus had asked his father “How long a time was it, 
lo, since so he was?” He saith to him: “Lo, from his boyhood, and 
often in the fire it hath cast him and in the water that it might 
destroy him; but as much as thou canst, my Lord, help me and 
have compassion upon me!” Jesus saith to him: “If thou believest, 
everything can come to pass to thee.” And in the same hour the 
father of the lad cried out and said: “I believe, my Lord ; help my 
lack!” When Jesus saw that some were running that were coming 
near, he rebuked that spirit and said to it: “Thee I command, deaf 
spirit that speakest not, go forth from him and no more enter into 
him.” And he cried out and convulsed him much and went forth 
from him, and he became as one dead ; and many supposed that he 
had died. But Jesus took him by his hand and raised him up and 
delivered him to his father. And when he entered the house his 
disciples asked him between themselves and him “Wherefore 
cannot we cast it out?” He saith to them: “This kind by nothing 
goeth forth save by fasting and by prayer.” 

And when they went forth from thence they were journeying 
through Galilee, and he was not willing that any one should be 
aware of him. And he was teaching his disciples and saying to them 
“The Son of Man is delivered into the hands of men, and they will 
kill him ; and what time they have killed him, on the third day he 
will rise.” And they were not recognising aught that he said to 
them and were afraid to ask him. And he came to Kapharnahum, 
and when he entered his house he was asking them “ What were ye 
speaking one with another in the way?” And they were silent, for 
these men were thinking who should be greatest. And he sat and 
called his Twelve, and said to them: “He that willeth to be first 
shall be last of every one and servant of every one.” And he had

the man: “ He that believeth—all things are possible to him;” and he saith

S. MARK IX, X 207 


taken a certain lad and made him stand among them, and he looked 
at him and said to them “Every one that shall receive as 7 were 
this lad in my name, me it is he receiveth [+] not me he receiveth, 
but him that sent me.” John answered and said to him: “Rabban, 
we saw one casting out devils in thy name, and we forbad him on the 
ground that he cometh not after us.” But he saith to them: “Forbid 
him not, for there is no one that doeth aught in my name and can 
say against me what 78 evil; for he that is not against us is with us. 
For every one that shall give you to drink a cup of water in the 
name that ye are the Messiah’s—amen, I say to you that he hath 
not lost his reward. And every one that shall offend one of these 
little ones that believe in me, it were profitable for him if an ass’s 
millstone were to be laid about his neck and he were sunk in the sea, 
And if thy hand therefore offend thee, cut it off from thee ; for it 
is profitable for thee that having one hand thou shouldest enter 
life, and not having two hands go to the fire that is not quenched. 
And if thy foot offend thee, cut dt off and throw it from thee ; for it 
is profitable for thee that being halt thou shouldest enter life, and 
not having two feet go to Gehenna. If thine eye offend thee pluck 
it out from thee; for it is profitable for thee that having one eye 
thou shouldest enter the kingdom of God, and not having two eyes 
go to Gehenna, where neither their worm dieth nor is their fire 
quenched. For every one with fire shall be salted. Excellent is salt ; 
but if the salt be not right, wherewith shall one season it? Have 
for yourselves salt, and be at peace one with another.” And he 
arose from thence, and came to the border of Judaea to the other 
side of the Jordan, and there went again unto him a multitude, and 
as he was accustomed he was healing and teaching them. And they 
were asking him, tempting him, if it be lawful for a man that he 
should leave his wife? And he answered and said to them: “Moses 
—what hath he commanded you?” They say to him: “Moses per- 
mitted us that we should write a bill of remission and give zt her and 


dismiss her.” Jesus answered and said to them: “Moses because

8. MARK ± 209 


of the hardness of your heart permitted you this commandment, but 
from the beginning male and female God made them. Therefore 
shall a man leave his father and his mother, and the two of them 
shall become one flesh. Then they have become not two, but are 
one flesh; that which God therefore hath coupled let not man 
separate.” When he entered the house again his disciples asked 
him about this. He saith to them: “That woman which leaveth 
her husband and becometh the wife of another doth indeed commit 
adultery, and that man which leaveth his wife and taketh another 
doth indeed commit adultery.” 

And they brought near to him children, that he should lay his 
hand upon them ; and his disciples rebuked those that were bringing 
them near. When Jesus saw, it displeased him, and he rebuked 
them and said to them: “Suffer the children to come unto me, and 
forbid them not; for they that are such as these, theirs is the 
kingdom of God. Amen, I say to you Every one that shall not 
receive the kingdom of God as a child shall not enter it.” And he 
called them and laid his hands upon them and was blessing them. 

While journeying in the way, a certain one ran and fell on his 
knees and said to him: “Good teacher, what shall I do that I may 
inherit life eternal?” Jesus saith to him:‘ “Why callest thou me 
Good? There is none good save one,—God. Now the commandments 
thou knowest, ‘Thou shalt not kill, 5‘Thou shalt not commit adultery,’ 
‘Thou shalt not thieve, ‘Thou shalt not bear false witness,’ ‘Honour

lacking to thee ¡ go, sell everything that thou hast and give to the 
poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven, and take up thy cross 
and come after me.” And it pained him at this word and he went 
away grieved, because he had much wealth. And Jesus looked upon 
his disciples and said: “How difficult for them which trust in their 
wealth to enter the kingdom of God!”% And his disciples were 
wondering at his words. Again Jesus answered and said to them: 
“My sons, how difficult for them which trust in their wealth to enter 
the kingdom of God!” $ For it is easier for a camel to enter through 
the eye of a needle than a rich man into the kingdom of heaven.” ܪ‎ 
Now they were the more wondering in themselves saying: “Who 
then can live?” Jesus looked upon them, and said to them: “This 
with men is not possible save from God; but with God everything 
is possible.” Kepha saith to him: “Lo, we have left everything, and 
have come after thee.” Jesus answered and said: “Amen, I say to 
you Every man that shall leave house or brothers or sisters or 
mother or father or sons or fields for my sake and for my gospel’s— 
but he shall receive an hundredfold in this time, houses and brothers 
and sisters and mother and sons and fields, with persecution, and in 
the world to come he shall inherit life eternal. For there are many 
first that shall be last, and last that shall be first.”

8. MARK X 213 


And while they were going up in the way to Jerusalem, and 
Jesus himself was going before them, they that were with him were 
wondering, being afraid. And he took his Twelve and had begun to 
say to them that which was about to befal him, saying “Lo, we go 
up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man is to be delivered up to 
the chief priests and to the scribes, and they will condemn him to 
death, and will deliver him up to the peoples, and they will make 
sport of him and scourge him and spit in his face and kill him, and 
on the third day he will rise.” 

And there drew near unto him James and John the sons of 
Zebedee, and they say to him: “Rabbi, we would that all that we 
shall ask thee thou wilt do for us.” He saith to them: “What would 
ye that I should do for you?” They say to him: “Give us to sit on 
thy right and on thy left in thy glory.” Jesus answered and said 
to them: “Ye know not what ye are asking. Are ye able to drink 
the cup that I drink, or with the baptism are ye baptized?” They 
say to him: “We are able.” Jesus saith to them: “That ye should 
drink the cup that I drink ye are able, and that ye should be 
baptized with the baptism wherewith I am baptized ye are able ; 
but that ye should sit on my right or on my left, this is not mine 
to give, but for totherst it is made ready.” And when the Ten 
heard, they began murmuring against James and against John. 
And he called them and said to them: “Ye know that the chiefs 
of the peoples are their lords. Not so shall it be among you, but 
he that would with you be the great one shall be to you a servant, 
and he of you which would be first shall be the slave of every one ; 
even as the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and 


to give his life to be a redemption for many.” 





36 He saith....do for you?] ‘He saith to them: I will do i for you’ 
EY 40 but for others] The word corresponding to ‘ other’ is never found 
elsewhere so spelt in S; it seems to be meant for the plural. The word for 


‘but’ corresponds to 06 not adda

8. MARK X, XI 215 


And he came to Jericho, and when he went forth from Jericho, 
he and his disciples and a great multitude, Timaeus Bar Timaeus 
the blind man was sitting by the way and begging. And when he 
heard that it was Jesus the Nazarene, he began to cry out and to 
say: “Son of David, have compassion on me!” And many rebuked 
him that he should be silent, and again he went on crying out: 
“Son of David, have compassion on me!” And Jesus stood and 
said that they should bring him near, and he called the blind man, 
and they say to him: “Fear not; stand up, he calleth thee.” And 
he stood and took up his things, and came unto Jesus. Jesus 
answered and said to him: “What wouldest thou I should do for 
thee?” The blind man saith to him: “Rabbi, that I may see.” He 
saith to him: “Go, thy faith hath saved thee alive.” And in the same 
hour his eyes were opened, and he was coming after him in the way. 
And when they drew near to Jerusalem, to Beth Phagge to Beth 
Ania by the Mount of Olives, he sent two of his disciples and saith : 
“Go to that village over against you, and in the same hour what time 
ye are entering it ye will find a colt tied that no human being hath 
ridden upon ; loose and bring it. And if anyone say to you aught, 
say to him that for its Lord it is required, and immediately he will 
send it here.” And they went and they found the colt tied at the 
door of the court in the street. And while loosing it some of the 
folk standing there say: “What are ye doing and loosing the colt?” 
And those disciples said to them as Jesus said to them, and they 
brought the colt unto Jesus and they cast on it their cloaks and he 
rode upon it, and many were spreading their cloaks in the way. 
And they that were going before him and that were coming after 
him were crying out, and saying: “Osanna! Blessed is he that 
cometh in the name of the Lorp; blessed is the kingdom that 
cometh, the kingdom of our father David! Peace in the highest !” 
And they entered Jerusalem ; and he entered the Temple and saw 
everything, but when it was evening he had gone forth to Beth Ania 
with the Twelve.

8. MARK XI 217 


And the next day, when he went forth from Beth Ania, he 
hungered. And he saw a fig-tree from afar having on it leaves, 
and he came unto it, if haply he might find on it something, 
and he came and found not anything save leaves; it had not 
been the time of figs. He answered and said to it: “Henceforth 
and for ever no one of thy fruits shall eat!” And his disciples had 
heard. And when he came to Jerusalem and had entered the 
Temple of God, he began to put forth them that buy and sell in 
the Temple and the tables of the moneychangers and the tables of 
them that sell doves; and he was not suffering any one to cause 
vessels to pass through within the Temple, and he was teaching and 
saying: “Is it not so written ‘My House a House of Prayer is 
called for all the peoples,’ but ye have made it a den of thieves.” 
And the chief priests and scribes had heard, and they were seeking 
how they might destroy him; for they were afraid of him, for all 
the people were astonished at his teaching. And what time it had 
become evening he had gone forth out of the city; and when they 
were crossing over in the morning they saw that fig-tree withered 
from its root, and when Kepha remembered he said to him: “ Rabbi, 
that fig-tree which thou cursedst hath withered!” Jesus answered 
and said to them: “If there be in you faith tint God, amen, I say 
to you that if ye shall say to this hill ‘Be taken up and fall into the 
sea, —and if he shall not doubt in his mind but shall believe that that 
which he hath said cometh to pass will come to pass,—therefore I say 
to you Everything that ye pray for and believe that ye will receive, 
it shall be to you. And what time ye stand and pray, be forgiving 
that which ye have against any, that your Father also in heaven may 
forgive you your sins.” 

And they had come again to Jerusalem and he was walking in 
the Temple, and there came unto him the chief priests and scribes 
and elders and they say to him: “By what authority doest thou 
these things? and who gave thee this authority?” Jesus answered 
and said to them: “T also will ask you one word that ye shall say

to me, and 1 will say to you by what authority I do these things ; 
the baptism of John, from heaven is it or from men?—say to me.” 
And they considered and said “If we say ‘From heaven,’ he will 
say to us ‘How is it ye did not believe in him?’ And if we say 
that it is from men—” they were afraid of the people, for all of 
them were holding to John, because he was a prophet. They say 
to him: “We do not know.” Jesus answered and said to them: 
“Neither do I say to you by what authority I do these things.” And 
he had begun to speak in similitudes: “A man planted a vineyard 
and surrounded it with a hedge and digged in it a wine-press and 
built in it a tower and let it out to husbandmen and departed. And 
he sent in the time of fruits unto the husbandmen his slave, that 
they might send him of the fruits of his vineyard. And they took 
hold of him and beat him and sent him away empty. And again he 
sent unto them another slave, and him also they killed, and many 
others—some of them they beat and some of them they killed. One 
beloved son had he; he sent ham unto them, and said: ‘Perhaps 
they will have reverence for my son.’ But those husbandmen said 
in themselves ‘This is his son, his heir; come, let us kill him, and 
the inheritance will be ours’ And they took hold and killed him 
and put him forth out of the vineyard. What time the lord of the 
vineyard cometh, what will he do? He will destroy the husbandmen 
and will give the vineyard to others) And not even this Scripture 
have ye read ‘The stone that the builders rejected, it hath become 
the head of the corner; from the Lorp this came to pass, and a 
wonder it is in our eyes.” And they were seeking to take hold 
of him, and they were afraid of the people, for they had perceived 
that against them he said this similitude; and they left him and 
went away. And they sent unto him folk from the Pharisees and 
from the Herodians that they might take hold of him with a word. 
And they began to say to him with guile: “Teacher, we know that 
thou art true and carest not for any one, for thou hast no respect 


of persons for any one, but the way of God in truth thou teachest—

is it lawful to give money for heads to Caesar, or shall we not give?” ܪ‎ 


And he, he had known their guile and saith to them: “Why tempt 
ye me? Bring me a denar that I may see it.” And they brought ® 
to him. He saith to them: “Whose is this image, and the inscrip- 
tion?” They say to him: “Caesar’s.” Jesus answered and said to 
them: “Give what zs Caesar’s to Caesar, and God’s to God.” And 
they had been astonished at him. 

And there came unto him Sadducees, they that were saying that 
there is no resurrection, and they were asking him and saying: 
“Teacher, Moses wrote for us that what ¢ime a man’s brother hath 
died, and he hath a wife and hath not left + + ~* he shall 
take [his brother’s wife] that he may raise up seed to his brother. 
Seven brothers there were, and the first took a wife and died and 
left no + + * * * *« + * « «* and she became wife of 
the seven of them, and they left no seed; last of all died that 
woman also. In the resurrection, therefore, what téme they have 
risen, whose of them shall the woman be? For lo, the seven of them 
took her.” Jesus answered and said to them: “Because of this it 
is ye err—that ye know not the Scriptures nor the power of God. 
For what time they have risen from among the dead they will not 
take women, nor do women become wives of men, but as the angels 
in heaven are they. Now concerning the dead that they rise, have 
ye not read [in the book of Moses how] God said [from the Bush] ‘I 
fam] the God of Abraham and the God of Isaac and the God of 
Jacob’? And lo, the God not of the dead, but of the living. But 
ye, much do ye err.’ And when one of the scribes heard that well 
he returned answer to those that were seeking a dispute with him, 
he asked him: “Which is the first commandment?” Jesus answered 
and said: “First of all of them 78 ‘Hear, O Israel, + the Lorp our 
God is one, and ‘Thou shalt love the Lorp thy God from all thy 





29 Israel + the Lorp] The unread space in S between these words is 
probably blank, so that nothing is lost. H’'® has twice over ‘Hear, O Israel, 
the Lord thy God is one Lord,’ but out of this conteat.

heart and from all thy soul and from all thy understanding and from S 


all thy power. This is the first commandment. And a second that 
is like to it 78 ‘Thou shalt be loving to thy neighbour as thyself, 
Another commandment greater than these there is not.” That scribe 
saith to him: “Rabbi, well in truth hast thou said that God is one 
and there is no other apart from him; that a man should love 
him from all his heart and from all his soul and from all his power 
and that he should love his neighbour as himself is better than all 
burnt-offerings and sacrifices.” Jesus, when he saw that well he 
returned answer, answered and said to him: “Thou art not far from 
the kingdom of God.” And no one tagain dared ask him. 

Saith Jesus while teaching in the Temple: “How say the scribes 
that the Messiah is the son of David? And David himself hath said 
in the Holy Spirit ‘The Lorp said to my Lord, Sit on my right

him ‘our Lord, how was he his son?” And all the multitude gladly 
was hearing him. And he was saying while teaching: “Keep your- 
selves from the scribes that wish to walk in porches, and love 
greeting in the streets and the chief seats in the synagogues and 
the chief entertainments at suppers, and eat up the houses of widows 
in the pretext that they are lengthening their prayers—and they 
themselves shall receive the more judgement.” 

And when Jesus was standing over against the treasury he was 
seeing the many that were casting in money into the treasury, and 
many of the rich that were casting in much. And a certain poor 
widow came and cast in two mites, which are a quarter. Jesus 
called his disciples and said to them: “Yea, I say to you that this 
poor widow hath cast in more than any one into the treasury ; for 
every one of that which was abundant to him hath cast in, but this

xill 1 woman everything that she was possessing cast in.” And when Jesus S 
was going forth from the Temple one of his disciples saith to him: 
2 “Rabbi, lo, see the stones and the great building!” Jesus saith to 
him: “See this building—there will not be left here a stone on a 
stone that will not be thrown down.” 
3 And when he sat on the Mount of Olives over against the Temple, 
Kepha and James and John and Andrew themselves alone asked 
+ him: “Say to us when these things shall be, and what the sign with 
ܪ‎ which these things are accomplished?” Jesus saith to them: “See 
6 lest any lead you astray. For many will come in my name, and will 
7 say ‘I am he, and many will they lead astray. Now what time ye 
have heard of battles and tales of battles, be not afraid ; for that 
8 is about to be, but not as yet és the last. For people will rise 
against people and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be 
earthquakes in various places; famines and tumults are the be- 
9 ginning of travail. And they will deliver you up to the peoples 
and to the Synagogues, and before kings ye shall stand and ye shall 
be scourged before governors for my sake, for a witness to them 
ro and to all the peoples; for firstly this gospel shall be preached. 
ir Now what ¢ime they bring you up that they may deliver you over, do 
not give thought to what ye shall say, but that which is given to you 
in that hour—that speak ye; for not ye are speaking but a holy 
12 Spirit. For the brother will deliver up his brother to death and the 
father his son, and the sons will rise up against the fathers and will 
13 put them to death, and every man will be hating you for my name’s 
sake. Every one that shall endure unto the last, he shall live. 
14 What time ye have seen the sign of abomination of desolation 
standing where it is not necessary—he that readeth, let him under- 
stand—then they that ave in Judaea let them flee to the hill-cowntry, 
rs and he that is on the roof let him not go down to the house nor 
16 enter that he may take away aught from his house, and he that 
is in the field let him not turn behind that he may take away his 
clothing.

what ye shall speak’ A415 (for the rest of this quotation, see on Mt x 20,

S. MARK XIII 227 


Now woe to them with child, and to them that are giving suck in S 


those days! But pray that it may not be in the winter. For there 
will be distress in those days, the like of which hath not been from 
the day that God created the world even unto to-day, neither again 
shall be. And if those days had not been short no flesh would 
live, but because of the chosen ones whom he hath chosen the 
days are short. And then if any one shall say to you ‘Lo, here 
is the Messiah,’ ‘Lo, there,—do not believe him; because there 
will arise lying Messiahs and prophets of untruth and they will 
give signs and wonders, so that if possible they will lead astray 
even the chosen ones. Now yourselves, see,—lo, I beforehand have 
said to you everything. But in those same days after that distress 
the sun will be darkened and the moon her light will not shew, 
and the stars will fall from heaven and the powers of heaven will 
tremble, and then they will see the Son of Man coming on the 
clouds with great power and with glory. And then he will send 
his angels and will gather together his chosen ones from the four 
winds, from the uttermost part of the earth unto the uttermost part 
of the heaven. Now from the fig-tree learn a parable, that what 
time its branches have become tender and its leaves are put forth 
ye know that the summer 28 near; so ye also, what time ye have 
seen these things that are coming to pass, know ye that it hath 
drawn nigh to the door. Amen, I say to you that this generation 
will not pass away until all these things be. Heaven and earth 
will pass away, and my words will not pass away. Now of that 
day and of that hour no one knoweth, not even the angels in heaven 
nor the Son, but the Father. Now be ye watchful and praying, 
for ye know not the time. For just as a man that departed and 
left his house and gave to his slaves his property, to each man his 
work, and commanded the doorkeeper that he should be watchful— 
be ye therefore watchful, for ye know not when the master of the

house cometh, not if i¢ be in the evening-time, nor if in the 
mid-night, nor if in the twilight, nor if in the dawn,—and shall he 
come suddenly and find you sleeping? And that which to you 
I say, to all of you I say—be ye watchful!” 

Two days before it was the Unleavened Bread of Pasek the chief 
priests and scribes were seeking how with guile they should take 
hold of him and kill him, for they were saying “Not on the Feast, 
that there be not an uproar of the people.” And when he was in 
Beth Ania in the house of Simon the leper, while sitting aé meat, 
there came a certain woman carrying a vase of perfume, nard of 
good pistic, the price of which was great, and she brake it and 
poured it on his head. And there were some whom it displeased 
in their soul and they say “Wherefore is this [waste]? For it 
could have been sold for three hundred denars and be given to the 
poor.” And they were murmuring among themselves against her. 
Now Jesus said to them: “Suffer her; why injure ye her? for a 
fair deed hath she done unto me. For at all times the poor are 
by you, and whensoever ye will ye can do for them ; but I, at all 
times 1 am not by you. For this which she hath done, as if for 
my burial, lo, she hath done ܐ‎ and beforehand hath perfumed my 
bodily frame. Amen, I say to you Wherever my gospel shall be 
announced, in all the world there will be for her the memory of this 
which she hath done.” 

And Judas Scariot, one of the Twelve, went unto the chief priests 
so that he might deliver him up. And they, when they heard, 
rejoiced and promised that they would give him silver ; and he was 
seeking an opportunity so that he might deliver him up. On the first 


day of the Unleavened Bread, when the Passover was slaughtered

his disciples said to him: “Where wilt thou that we go and 
make ready that thou eat the Passover?” And he sent two of his 
disciples, and said to them: “Go to the town; lo, there will meet 
you a certain man carrying a vessel of water. Go after him to 
wherever he entereth, and say to the master of the house: [Our] 
Rabbi saith, ‘My time hath arrived; where is my guest-chamber 
where I may eat the Passover with my disciples?” And lo, he 
will shew you a certain large upper-room furnished and made ready ; 
there prepare for us. His disciples went as [he said] to them and 
came to the town and found as he said to them; and they made 
ready the Passover. And when it was evening he came with his 
Twelve, and while they were sitting at meat and eating Jesus said 
to them: “Amen, amen, I say to you One of you that eateth with 
me, he will betray me.’ Now they began to be grieved and were 
saying to him each one of them “Is it I?” But he said to them: 
“One of the Twelve, that hath put forth his hand with me in the 
bowl. And the Son of Man goeth as is written of him, but woe to 
that man by whose hand the Son of Man is betrayed; it were

And while they were eating bread he blessed, and brake and 
gave to his disciples, and said to them: “Take, this 7s my body.” 
And he took a cup and blessed, and gave to them and they drank 
from it. And he said to them: “This 78 my blood of the new 
covenant, that for many is shed. Amen, I say to you that no 
more shall I drink of the offspring of the vine, until that day in 
which I shall drink it with you newly in the kingdom of God.” And 
they had glorified God and went out to the Mount of Olives. Jesus 
saith to them “All of you will be offended in me, for it is written 
‘I will smite the shepherd and the lambs will be scattered. And 
what tame I have arisen, I go before you to Galilee.” Kepha 
answered and said to him: “If all of them shall be offended, I not.”

8. MARK XIV 233 


Jesus saith to him: “Amen, amen, I say to thee Thou to-day in 
this night, before ever the cock crow twice, three times thou wilt 
deny me.” And Simon all the more said “If it shall be for me 
that I should die with thee, I will not deny thee.’ And so all of 
them also said. And they came to the place which is called 
Gedsemane, and he said to his disciples: “Sit here, while I pray.” 
And he took Kepha and James and John, and he began to be 
gloomy and to be in trouble. And he said to them: “It doth 
grieve my soul even unto death.” And he departed a little, and he fell 
on his face on the earth and was praying if it could be that the hour 
should pass from him. And he said: “My Father, everything is in 
thy power ; cause this cup to pass from me—but not my will, mine, 
be done, but thine!” And he came and found them sleeping, and 
he said to Kepha: “Simon, thou hast slept; hast thou not been 
able one hour to watch? Watch and pray that ye enter not into 
temptation ; the spirit is willing, but the body is infirm.” And he 
went again and prayed, and the same word he said. And he came 
and found them again asleep, for their eyes were laden with sleep, 
and they knew not what they should say to him. And he came for 
the third time and said to them: “Sleep and take your ease; the 
hour hath come, the end hath arrived—lo, betrayed is the Son of 
Man into the hands of the sinners! Arise, let us go; lo, he that 
betrayeth me hath drawn near.’ And while yet he was speaking 
Judas, one of the Twelve, came, and with him a great multitude 
carrying scimitars and staves from the chief priests and scribes and 
elders. And he gave them a sign, he which was betraying him, in 
that he said to them: “He which I kiss, he it is; take hold of him 
warily and carry him along.” And immediately he came unto him 
and said to him: “Rabbi!” and kissed him. And they laid hands 
upon him, and took hold of him. And one of those standing 
by drew a sword and smote the chief priest's slave and took off 
his ear. Jesus answered and said to them: “As against a robber 
have ye come forth with swords and with staves that ye might 
take hold of me! Daily with you am I in the Temple—while

teaching ye were not laying hold of me—but because the Scriptures 
should be accomplished.” And all his disciples had left him and 
fled. And a certain youth was coming after him, and he was dressed 
in a cloth, and there went many folk and took hold of him ; and he 
left the garment in their hands and fled from them naked. And 
they carried Jesus along unto the chief priests, and they were 
bringing with him all the chief priests and elders and scribes. And 
Kepha was coming from afar after him as far as the house of the 
chief priest, and was sitting by the guards and was warming himself. 
Now the chief priests and all the multitude were seeking against 
Jesus witness that they might kill him, and were not finding any ; 
and many were witnessing against him lying witness, and their witness 
did not agree. Now some rose up against him and say “We 
ourselves have heard him that he said ‘I will pull down the Temple 
made with hands, and in three days I wild make another not made 
with hands.’” And not even so did their witness agree. And the 
chief priest rose in the midst and asked Jesus, and said to him: 
“Dost thou offer no answer? What are these bearing witness 
against thee?” Now he himself was silent, and not any answer 
did he return. And again the chief priest asked him the second 
time and said to him: “Art thou the Messiah, the Son of the 
Blessed?” Jesus answered and said to him: “I am he, and hence- 
forth ye will see the Son of Man sitting on the right hand of Power 
and coming on the clouds of heaven.” And the chief priest then 
rent his clothing and said: “Why henceforth is there required for you 
our witnesses? For lo, all of you have heard his blasphemy. What 
seemeth it to you?” And all of them were judging him guilty of 
death. And some of them began to spit at him and to buffet him, 


and say: “ Prophesy to us now.” And the guards were smiting him

on his cheeks. And when Kepha [was] in the court of the chief S 


priest a certain maid of the chief priest saw him warming himself, 
and she saith to him: “And thou also wast with Jesus the 
Nazarene.” But he denied and said: “I know Aim not, and I 
am not acquainted with what thou sayest.” And he went forth to 
the outer court and again the maid saw him, and she began to say 
to those standing by: “ And this one also is of them.” But he again 
denied. And again after a little those standing by said to Kepha: 
“Truly thou art of them, because thou art a Galilaean.” ‘And he was 
asseverating and sware “TI know him not,’ this man that ye say.” 
And the cock crew the second time, and Kepha recollected the word 
that Jesus had said to him [“ Before] ever the cock crow twice, three 
times thou wilt deny me.” And he had begun to weep. 

And in the morning the chief priests and elders and scribes and 
all the people took counsel, and they bound Jesus and carried him 
along and delivered him up to Pilate. And Pilate asked him: 
“Art thou the king of the Jews?” He answered and said to him: 
“Thou hast said 7.7 And the chief priests were accusing him much, 
and he no answer was giving them. And again Pilate saith to him: 
“Dost thou return them no answer? Seest thou not how many are 
bearing witness against thee?” [Now Jesus] gave not any answer, 
[so that] Pilate was [wondering.] 

[Now at every Feast] he was releasing to them one prisoner, 
whichever they [were] asking [of him]; and there was imprisoned a 
man, an evil-doer called Bar Abba, and he had been a man that did 
evil deeds and committed murders. And the people exclaimed and 


began to ask that he should do something for them. Pilate answered

and said to them: “Do ye wish that I release to you the king of the 
Jews?” For Pilate knew that from envy they delivered him up. And 
the chief priests persuaded the people that for Bar Abba they should 
ask, that he should release him to them. Pilate answered again and 
said to them: “What therefore do ye wish [that I do to the king of 
the Jews?” And they again were crying out: “Crucify him!”] Now 
Pilate said [to them: "9 Why? For what evil hath been done by 
him?”] And they the more were crying out: “Crucify him!” Now 
Pilate was wishing to do the will of the multitude, and he released to 
them Bar Abba and delivered up to them Jesus when scourged, that 
he might be crucified. And the soldiers carried him along within the 
court, which is the Praetorium, and called all the cohort ; and they 
clothed him in purple and plaited a crown of thorns and set it for 
him and began to greet him, saying: “Hail, king of the Jews!” 
And they were smiting him upon his head with a reed and were 
spitting in his face, and they fell on their knees and were worshipping 
him. And when they had mocked they stripped him of his purple 
and clothed him in his own garments, and brought him forth that 
they might crucify him. And they compelled Simon, a Cyrenian, who 
was coming from the field, the father of Alexander and of Rufus, that 
he should take up his cross. And they brought him to the place 
called Gugaltha, which is interpreted ‘Skull’; and they gave him 
wine perfumed with perfume, and he took 26 not. And they crucified 
him and divided his garments among them and cast for them lots. 
Now it was the third hour, and they crucified him ; and his trespass 
was written: “This zs the king of the Jews.” And there were 
crucified with him two robbers, one on his right and one on his 
left. And they were blaspheming against him and wagging their 
heads and saying: “Oh! Destroyer of the Temple and builder of it

in three days, save thyself alive and come down from the cross!” S 


And again the chief priests also, laughing one with another, with the 
scribes, say : “Others he saved alive, himself he could not save alive; 
the Messiah, the king of Israel—let him come down from the cross, 
that we may see and believe!” And those also that were crucified 
with him were reproaching him. 

And when it was the sixth hour there was darkness unto the 
ninth hour, and at the ninth hour he called with a mighty voice : 
“My God, my God, wherefore hast thou left me?” And some folk of 
those standing by heard and say “For Elijah he hath called!” 
And one ran and filled a sponge with vinegar and set 7? on a reed 
and gave him to drink. And they say: “Let be; we shall see if 
Elijah cometh and taketh him down.” And he, Jesus, crying out 
with a mighty voice expired. 

And the veil of the Temple was rent in twain from the top unto the 
bottom. Now when the centurion who was standing by him saw, and 
when crying out he had expired, he said: “This truly is the Son of 
God!” And there were women standing from afar that were seeing— 
Mary Magdalene, and Mary daughter of James the Little, the mother 
of Joseph, and Salome,—those that came with him from Galilee, and 
many others that were serving him, that had come up with him to 
Jerusalem. And it was on the sabbath, and there had come Joseph 
from Ramtha, an honourable man, a counsellor, and he also was 
looking for the kingdom of heaven ; and he dared and went in unto 
Pilate and asked for the corpse of Jesus. And Pilate was astonished 
that he was dead already, and he sent and called the centurion and 


asked him if he were dead. And when he learned from the centurion

46 he gave his corpse to Joseph. And he bought a cloth and brought S 
and wrapped it in the cloth and laid it in a tomb that was hewn for 
him in the rock, and he rolled a stone and put € against the door of 

47 the tomb. Now Mary Magdalene and Mary the daughter of James 

xvi 1 had seen where he was laid. And when the sabbath was past they 
bought oil and spices—Mary Magdalene, and Mary the daughter of 

2 James, and Salome—that they might come and anoint him. And at 
the dawn on the first day of the week they came to the tomb when 

3 the sun was up. And they were saying in themselves: “Now who 

+ hath rolled away for us the stone of the tomb? Because it was great 
exceedingly.” And they came, and they saw that the stone was rolled 


5 away, and they entered the tomb and saw a youth sitting on their 


ܗ 


right hand and dressed in a white robe, and they were afraid. And 
he saith to them: “Fear not; Jesus the Nazarene ye seek, him that 
was crucified. He hath risen and is not here ; lo, his place where he 
7 had been laid! But go, say to his disciples and to Kepha ‘Lo, he 

goeth before you to Galilee: there shall ye see him, as he said to 
8 you.’” And when they heard they came forth, and they went away 


and to no one aught said they, because they had been afraid.

Now our Lord Jesus, after he commanded his disciples, was taken 
up to heaven, and he sat on the right hand of God. But they went 
forth and preached in every place, the Lorp being with them in all, 
and their word he was confirming by the signs that they were doing.

EVANGEL OF LUKE 


Because many have wished to write and to declare concerning 
those matters which among us have been completed, as they who 
from of old were eyewitnesses and servants of the word have 
delivered to us, it hath seemed good to me, even me, who have 
investigated them all from the beginning, carefully one by one to 
write them to thee, illustrious Theophilus, that thou mayest know 
the truth of the words which thou hast been taught. 

There was in the days of Herod the king of Judaea a certain 
priest whose name was Zacharia of the division of Beth Abiam, and 
his wife was of the daughters of Aaron—her name was Elisabeth. 
Now both of them were righteous before God and were walking in 
all his commandments and in the uprightness of the Lorp, and were 
blameless in all their way of life. But no son had they, because 
Elisabeth was barren and both of them were advanced in days. 

Now it had come to pass when he was serving in the order of the 
priests before God, that in the custom of the service of priests it had 
arrived to him to bring in incense ; and when he entered the Temple 
a number of the people were standing and praying at the season of 
the incense. And there appeared to him, even Zacharia, an angel of 
the Lorp standing on the right hand of the altar of incense ; and he 
was agitated and trembled when he saw the angel, and fear fell upon 
him. The angel saith to him: “Fear not, Zacharia ; for lo, §God hath 
hearkened to the voice of thy prayer,’ and thy wife Elisabeth shall bear 
thee a son, and thou shalt call his name John. And thou shalt have 





6 way of life] or, ‘habitation.’ So also 707 (‘They were blameless in all 
their habitation’): ¢f Lk ii 37 13 God.....thy prayer] thy prayer hath 
been heard before God 4 34

the angel from her. And Mary arose in those same days and went 


up with care to the hill-cowntry to a town of Judaea. And she 
entered the house of Zacharia and greeted Elisabeth, and it came to 
pass when Elisabeth heard the greeting of Mary the babe leaped in 
her womb. And Elisabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit and with 
a loud voice she cried out and said to Mary: “Thou art the blessed 
among women, and blessed is the fruit in thy womb! What is it 
hath done me this, that the mother of my Lord should come unto 
me? For lo, when the voice of thy greeting fell in my ears, with 


5 great joy leaped the babe in my womb! And happy is it for her 


which shall believe that there cometh to pass a fulfilment for those 
things that were spoken with her from the Lorp.” Saith Mary: 
“My soul doth magnify the Lorp and my spirit hath rejoiced in God 
the Life-giver, in that he hath looked upon the lowliness of his hand- 
maiden; for from now all generations will be calling me happy, in 
that he hath done unto me great things—he, whose Name of mercy 
is glorified and holy unto the age and on the stock of them that fear 
him. And he hath made a dominion with his arm and scattered the 
understanding of the hearts of the proud. And he hath brought 
down the mighty from their thrones and lifted up the lowly, and he 
hath filled the poor from his goodness and fdespised+ the rich 
empty. And he hath cared for Israel his son, and hath remembered 
his mercy ; as he spake with our fathers, with Abraham and with 
his seed for ever.” Now Mary remained by Elisabeth about three 
months and returned to her house.

to her the good tidings.... he said to her: Hail to thee, blessed among women!’,

magnified (and thanked A*) the Lorp, in that he was pleased with the lowli-

And when the time of Elisabeth’s child-bearing was accomplished 
she bare a son, and her neighbours and the members of her family 
heard that the Lorp had multiplied his mercy unto her, and they 
were rejoicing for her. And it was the eighth day when they came 
to circumcise the lad, and they were calling him by the name of his 
father Zacharia. And his mother said “Not so, but he shall be 
called John.” And they say to her: “There is no one in thy stock 
that is called by this name ‘John’” And they had said to his 
father also how he wished that he should be called; and he asked 
for a writing-tablet and wrote on it “John is his name,” and in the 
same hour was unloosed the band of his tongue. And he blessed 
God, and all of them were astonished. And fear came on all their 
neighbours, and in all the hill-cownéry of Judaea these things were 
being spoken, and they were laying them up in their heart and were 
saying: “ What will this lad become, whom the hand of the Lorp is 
with?” And Zacharia his father was filled with the Holy Spirit and he 
prophesied and said: “Blessed is the God of Israel that hath visited 
his people and made for it a redemption, and raised up for us a horn of 
life in the house of David his slave, as he said by the mouth of his holy 
prophets from eternity ; and he hath snatched us away to life from the 
hand of our enemies and of all that hate us, that he might do mercy 
with our fathers. And he hath remembered his holy covenants, the 
oaths that he sware to Abraham our father, that he would give to us 
that without fear we should be redeemed from the hand of our 


5 enemies, that we might serve before him in uprightness and in 


righteousness all the days of our life. And thou, lad, the prophet 
of the Highest shalt thou be called; thou shalt go before the 
countenance of the Lorp, to make ready his ways that he may give 
the knowledge of life to his people by the forgiveness of their sins, 
because of the mercy of the compassion of our God, wherewith he 
will visit us as the sunrise from on high; thou shalt shine to them 
that in darkness and in the shadows of death are sitting, that we 
may direct our feet in the way of peace.” Now the lad was growing 
up and waxing strong in spirit, and in the wilderness he was until 
the day of the shewing of him unto Israel.

And it came to pass in those days Augustus Caesar had commanded 
all the earth that they should be enrolled. Now this was the first 
enrolment in the years of Quirinus, governor of Syria. Now every 
one [was going] to be [enrolled], even from [his] city was cach one 
going to his place that there he might be enrolled. And Joseph also 
had gone up from Nazareth a city of Galilee to Judaea, to the city of 
David that is called Beth Lehem, he and Mary his wife who was 
great with child, that there they might be enrolled, because both of 
them were of the House of David. And when they were there her 
days were fulfilled to bear, and she bare her first-born son ; and she 
wrapped him in swaddling-clothes and put him in a manger, because 
there was no room for them. Now there were shepherds there in that 
same place [and while] they were watching and keeping guard over 
their ewes, there appeared to them an angel [of the Lorp] standing 
[by them] and the glory of the Lorp was shining upon them, and they 
feared with a great fear. The angel saith to them: “Fear ye not ; 
because lo, I announce to you a great joy that shall be for all the 
world—that there hath been born for you to-day a Life-giver, who is 
the Lorp, the Messiah, in the city of David. +Lo, thist ¢s for you 
the sign: ye will find the lad wrapped in swaddling-clothes and laid 
in a manger.” And suddenly there appeared by him a host, and the 
many angels [of heaven] glorify God and say : 8“ Glory to God in the 


highest, and peace in earth, and favour to the sons of men.’

15 After those angels went away from them to heaven the shepherds ܠ‎ 
were saying one to the other: “Come, let us [go] to Beth Lehem and 
16 see this which hath come to pass, as the angel hath shewed us.” And 
they went hastily and found Joseph and Mary, and the babe laid in a 
'7 manger, and they declared that which was spoken with them about 
18 that same lad. Now every one that was hearing from the shepherds 
when they were declaring about the things that they saw and heard 
‘9 were (ste) astonished and wondering, but Mary everything was laying 
20 in her heart and was comparing them in her mind. And _ those 
shepherds returned glorifying God and speaking about the things 
that they saw and heard, as was said to them. 
at And when eight days were fulfilled the lad was circumcised, and 
his name was called Jesus, as was said by the angel before he was 
22 conceived in the womb; and the days of his cleansing were finished, 
as it is written in the law of Moses. Then they took him up to 
23 Jerusalem, that they might make him stand before the Lorp, as is 
written in the law of the Lorp “Every first-born male opening the 
24 matrix, the Holy one of the Lorp he shall be called,” and that he 
might give the sacrifice, as is written in the law of the Lorp: “A 
pair of turtle-doves, or two young doves.” 
25 Now there was a certain man in Jerusalem—his name was Simon 
—upright he was and righteous, and he was receiving the supplication 
26 of Israel and a holy Spirit there was upon him ; and it had been said 
to him by that holy Spirit, that death he should not see until he 
27 should see the Lorp’s Messiah. And he came in the Spirit to the 
Temple, and when his parents were bringing him in, even the lad 
2g Jesus, that they might do for him as is commanded in the Law, he— 
29 Simon—received him in his arms and blessed God and said: “ Hence- 
forth thou dost dismiss him, my Lord, in peace—even thy servant, as 
30, 31 thou hast said. For lo, mine eyes have seen thy mercy which thou

for revelation of the peoples, and a glory of thy people Israel.” Now 
his father and his mother were astonished at the things that were 
being spoken about him. And Simon blessed them and said to Mary 
his mother: “Lo, this child is set in Israel for the fall and for the 
rising of many, and for a sign of contention that is spoken of ; and 
thine own soul thou shalt cause a spear to pass through, that the 
thoughts may be revealed from the hearts of many.” And Hanna 
also, a prophetess, the daughter of Phanuel of the tribe of Asher— 
and she also was advanced in days, and seven days only with a 
husband she was after her virginity, but the rest of her way of 
life in widowhood was eighty and four years,—this person from 
the Temple used not to go forth, and with fasting and with prayer 
and with supplication by day and by night used to serve God—and 
she also stood up in the same hour and gave thanks to the Lorp, and 
she was speaking about him twith+ every one that was announcing a 
redemption of Jerusalem. Now Joseph and Mary, when they finished 
in the Temple concerning the first-born everything that is written in 
the Law, returned to Galilee to Nazareth their city. 

Now the lad was growing up and waxing strong and being filled 
with wisdom, and the grace of God was upon him. And his kinsfolk 
every year were going to Jerusalem at the Feast of unleavened bread, 
of Pasek; and when he was twelve years old they went up, as they 
were accustomed, to the Feast. And when the days of the Feast 
were finished they returned, and the lad Jesus stayed from them in 
Jerusalem. And his kinsfolk knew 7 not, for they were supposing 
that with their company he went forth, and when [they had come a 
journey] of one day they were seeking him, even Jesus, among their

And when they found him not, they returned to Jerusalem and there 
they were seeking him. And after three days they found him in the 
Temple sitting amidst the teachers, and he was hearing them and 
was asking them questions. And all of them that were hearing him 
were astonished, and were wondering at his wisdom and at his 
answers. And when his kinsfolk found him they were astonished ; 
and his mother saith to him: “My son, wherefore | Shast thou done 
to us thus? For lo, we in trouble and in much perturbation have 
been seeking thee.” He saith to them: “Why are ye seeking me? 
Know ye not that at the Father’s House it behoves me to be?” 
Now they did not recognise the word that he said to them. And he 
went down with them and came to Nazareth, and was subject to 
them, but his mother all these words was keeping in ther+ mind. 
Now Jesus was growing up in his stature, and increasing in his 
wisdom and in his grace with God and with men. 

Now in the fifteenth year, in the reign of Tiberius Caesar, in the 
governorship of Pontius Pilate in Judaea, Herod being tetrarch in 
Galilee, and Philip his brother tetrarch in the country of Ituraea and 
in the district of Trachonitis, and Lysanias tetrarch in the country of 
the Habilenes, in the high priesthood of Hanan and of Caiapha,—came 
the word of God upon John the son of Zacharia, and he was preaching

All the valleys shall be filled and all the hills and heights shall 
become low, Sand the rough shall become a level and the broken 
country a plain. And the honour of the Lorp shall be revealed and 
all flesh shall see it together," because the mouth of the Lorp hath

And he was saying to the multitudes that were coming unto him : 
“ Offspring of vipers, who is it hath shewed you to flee from the wrath 
that is coming? Bring forth therefore fruits meet for repentance ; 
and do not begin to say ‘For a father we have Abraham,’ for I 
say to you that God is able from these stones to raise up sons to 
Abraham. And lo, the axe hath arrived at the root of the trees; 
but every tree that bringeth not forth good fruits is hewn down and 
falleth in the fire.” 

And the multitudes were asking him: “What shall we do, and 
live?” He saith to them: “He that hath two coats, let him give one 
of them to him that hath not; and he that hath food, let him do 
likewise.” And there came toll-gatherers also to be baptized. They 
say to him: “What shall we do?” He saith to them: “Do not 
exact any more above that which is appointed to you.” And soldiers 
also had asked him and they say to him: “What shall we do, even 
we?” He saith to them: “Do not oppress any one, and do not use 
violence to any one; sufficient for you are your allowances.” And

saying: “Can then he be the Messiah?” He saith to them: “TI, lo, 
I baptize you with water,‘ | but there cometh [after] me he that is 
mightier than I, the thong of whose shoes I am not worthy to 
unloose ; he shall baptize you with fire and with the Holy Spirit,—he 
who holdeth a fan in his hand and cleanseth his threshing-floor, and 
gathereth the wheat into his barn, and the chaff he burneth with fire 
unquenchable.” Many other things also while entreating he was 
announcing to the people. Now Herod the Tetrarch, because John 
was reproving him because of Herodia the wife of Herod’s brother 
and for all the evil things that he was doing,—Herod had added this 
also above all of them and shut up John in prison. 

And when all the people were being baptized Jesus also was 
baptized ; and when he was praying the heavens were opened and 
the Holy Spirit came down upon him in the likeness of the bodily 
frame of a dove, and a voice was heard from heaven: “Thou art my 
Son and my beloved in whom I have been pleased.”

Now Jesus, being filled with the Holy Spirit returned from the 
Jordan ; and the Holy Spirit took him and sent him forth into the 
wilderness, that he might be tempted by Satan. And he was there 
forty days; and after forty days that he was fasting he hungered. 
And the Accuser said to him: “If thou be the son of God, say to this 
stone that it become bread.” Jesus saith to him: “It is written 
‘Not by bread alone liveth man.’” And Satan took and brought him 
up and shewed him all the kingdoms of the earth in a little time, and 
said to him: “All these kingdoms and their glory that to me are 
delivered—to thee I give all this authority and glory, because to me it 
is given and to whom I will do I give it; thou, if thou wilt worship 
before me, for thee shall it all be.” Jesus answered and said to 
him: “It is written to worship the Lorp thy God, and him alone 
shalt thou serve.” And he brought him to Jerusalem, and made him 
stand upon the corner of the Temple, and said to him: “If thou be 
the son of God, cast thyself from hence ; for it is written ‘To his 
angels he shall command concerning thee that they should keep thee 
and on their hands should bear thee up, that thou shouldest not dash 
against a stone.” Jesus answered and said to him: “Thou shalt not 
tempt the Lorp thy God.” And when Satan finished his temptations 
he departed from him for a time.

And Jesus returned in the power of the Spirit to Galilee, and 
there went forth concerning him a tale in all that country ; and he 
was teaching them in their synagogues, and was glorified of every 
one. And he came to Nazareth where he had been brought up, and 
entered the synagogue on the sabbath-day as he was wont. And 
there was given him the book of Isaiah the prophet, and he stood up 
to read. When he opened the book he found the place that is 
written : “The Spirit of the Lorp 7s upon thee, because of which he 
hath anointed thee to announce the gospel to the poor; and he hath 
despatched me to preach to the captives forgiveness, and to the blind 
sight, and I will strengthen the broken with forgiveness ; and to 
preach the acceptable year of the Lorn.” And he rolled up the 
volume and gave it to the servant and sat down, and all of them on 
him were looking. And he began to say to them: “To-day hath this 
book been accomplished in your ears.” And they were all bearing 
him witness and were wondering at the gracious words that were 
coming forth from his mouth, and they were saying: “This one—is 
not he the son of Joseph?” He saith to them: “Perchance ye will 
say to me this similitude ‘Physician, heal thyself’; and the things 
that ye have heard that I have done in Kapharnahum—ye will say 
to me, ‘do them here also in thy city.’” He saith to them: “Amen, 
Isay to you There is no prophet that is received in his city. The 
truth I say to you Many widows there were in the House of Israel 
in the days of Elijah the prophet, when the heavens were shut up 
three years and six months, when a great famine was in all the land, 
and unto none of them was Elijah sent but to Zarephath of Sidon 
unto a widow woman; and many lepers there were in the House 
of Israel in the days of Elisha the prophet, and none of them was 
cleansed but a Gentile.” [And] when they that were in the synagogue 
heard these things they were filled with fury, and they put him forth 
out of the city and brought him even unto the Pharos (?) the hill

that their city was built on, so that they might hang him. And he 
even through them was passing, and he came down to Kapharnahum, 
a city of Galilee ; and he was teaching them on the sabbaths, and 
they were astonished at his teaching, in that authoritative was his 
word. And there was in that same synagogue of theirs a man in 
whom was the spirit of an unclean devil, and he screamed with a loud 
voice: “What have we to do with thee, Jesus the Nazarene? Hast 
thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art, the Holy One 
of God!” [And] Jesus [rebuked him] and said to him: “Shut thy 
mouth, go forth from him.” And the devil threw him down into the 
midst and went forth from him, not at all having hurt him. And 
astonishment was taking hold of them all, and they were speaking 
one with another and saying: “What is then this word, that with 
authority and with power commandeth these unclean spirits and they 
go forth?” And there was going forth concerning him a tale in all the 
country round about them. And when he arose from the synagogue 
he entered the house of Simon, and the mother-in-law of Simon—a 
great fever was holding her. And he rebuked her fever and it left her, 
and straightway she arose and was serving them. Now at the setting 
of the sun all they that had them that were infirm with stubborn 
infirmities brought them unto him, and on each one of them his hand 
he was laying, and all of them was he healing. And the devils were 
going forth from many, screaming and saying: “Thou art the Son of 
God!” And he was rebuking them and was not suffering them to 
say it, because they knew him that he was the Messiah. 

And with the morrow of the day he had come forth and he went 
away to a desert place, and many multitudes were seeking him and 
they came unto him and they took hold of him that he should not go 
away from them. But he said to them “To other cities also it 
behoves me that I announce the kingdom of God.”

multitude was + *+ that it might hear from him the word of God, 
and he was standing by the edge of the Lake of Gennesar. And he 
saw two boats that were standing by the side of the lake and the 
fishermen thereof that had gone up from them and were washing their 
nets. And one of them was Simon’s, and Jesus went up and sat in it 
and said that they should put it out from the dry land a little into 
the water. And he was sitting and teaching the multitude from the 
boat. And when he ceased from his speaking he answered and said 
to Simon: “Put out into the deep water and cast your nets for a 
catch.” Simon answered and said to him: “Rabbi, the whole night 
we have toiled and nothing have we found; but now at thy word we 
will put out the net.” And when they cast their nets they inclosed 
many fishes and their nets were being rent. And they beckoned to 
their comrades in the other boats that they should come and help 
them; and when they came they took up the fishes and filled both of 
the boats, and they were near from their weight to sink. And when 
Simon saw he fell on his face before the feet of Jesus and said to him: 
“My Lord, depart away from me, because I am a man, a sinner!” 
For astonishment took hold of him and of all them that were with 
him at that catch of fishes which they took,—and likewise James also 
and John, the sons of Zebedee, because they were partners of Simon. 
And Jesus saith to Simon: “Fear not, from now men shalt thou be 
catching unto life!” And they brought the boats near to the land 
and left everything and came after him. 

And when he was in one of the cities there came a certain man 
that was full of leprosy; he saw Jesus and fell on his face and was 
beseeching him and saying to him: “My Lord, if thou wilt, thou 
canst cleanse me.” And he put forth his hand and touched him, and 
said to him: “TI will, be thou cleansed.” And straightway his leprosy 
departed away from him. And Jesus warned him that to no one 
should he say if, “but go, shew thyself to the priests, and offer for 
thy cleansing as Moses commanded that it should be for them for 
a witness.” And there was going forth concerning him a tale ail the 
more, and a great multitude was being gathered together to hear

from him and to be healed from their infirmities. And he was 
removing to the open country and was praying. 

And it came to pass on one of the days when he was 
teaching, there were sitting Pharisees and teachers of the law, and 
they that came from every village of Galilee, of Judaea and of 
Jerusalem, and the power was in Jesus that he should be healing. 
And lo, folk brought a certain man, a paralytic on a bed, and they 
were seeking how they might bring him in that they might set him 
before him ; and they could not bring him in because of the people. 
And they went up to the roof and lowered him with his bed into the 
midst before Jesus. And when he saw their faith he said to the 
paralytic : “Man, thy sins are forgiven thee!” And [the scribes] and 
the Pharisees began thinking and saying: “Who is this that speaketh 
blasphemy? Who is it can forgive sins save God alone?” Now 
Jesus when he knew their thoughts answered and said to them: 
“Why are ye thinking in your heart?) Which is the easier, to say 
‘Thy sins are forgiven thee, or to say ‘Arise and walk’? But 
that ye may know yourselves that the Son of Man hath authority © 
that he should forgive sins on earth’’—he saith to the paralytic—“ To 
thee I say, Arise, take up thy bed and go to thy house.” And in 
the same hour he arose before them and took up that which he was 
lying on, and went to his house, glorifying God. [And astonish- 
ment took hold of] them [all, and they] were [glorifying God] and 
saying “We have seen wonders and great things to-day.” 

After these things Jesus went forth and saw [a toll-gatherer] 
sitting at the toll-gatherers’ place whose name was Levi, and he 


saith to him: “Come after me.” And he left everything and went

And in those same days he had gone forth to the hill to pray, and 
there he was spending the whole night until dawn in prayer to God ; 
and when day dawned he called his disciples and chose from them the 
Twelve whom he named Apostles :—Simon whom he named Kepha, 
and Andrew his brother, and James and John the sons of Zebedee, 
and Philip and Bartholomew and Matthew and Thomas and James 
the son of Halphaeus and Simon called Zealot and Judas the son 
of James, and Judas Scariot, he who was the betrayer. And he 
went down with them to a plain and stood up, he and 4 multitude of 
his disciples and a number of the multitude of the people that came 
from all Judaea and from Jerusalem and from the Littoral and from 
Tyre and from Sidon, that came that they might hear him and be 
healed from all their infirmities, and were distressed by unclean 
spirits that they might be healed—each one of them was wishing to 
touch him, for power was going forth from him and all of them he 
was healing. And he himself lifted up his eyes on his disciples and 
said 

“Happy is it for the poor, ‘that theirs is the kingdom of heaven ! 7 

“Happy is it for them that hunger now, that they shall be satisfied |! 

“ Happy is it for them that weep now, that they shall laugh ! 

“Happy is it for you, what time men hate you and separate you 
and reproach you, and put forth concerning you a name that is evil, 
because of the Son of Man. Now ye, rejoice ye in that hour [and 
exult] and leap jor joy that your reward is great in heaven, for so 


were their fathers doing to the prophets.

compassionate, as your Father is compassionate. Judge not, that ye 
be not judged; condemn not, that ye be not condemned ; ‘remit 
and ye shall be remitted, give and it is given to you,’—in good 
measure and overflowing shall they cast in your bosoms. With that 
measure which ye mete it is meted to you.” And he was saying 
to them this similitude: “Can the blind man lead the blind man 
and not both of them fall 6 the ditch? There is no disciplet 
that is perfect as his Rabbi in teaching. Now why the mote in 
thy brother’s eye dost thou see, and the beam in thine eye doth 
not appear to thee? How canst thou say to thy brother ‘My 
brother, let me put forth the mote from thine eye,’ and lo, in thine 
own eye a beam is set? Thou respecter of persons! put forth first 
the beam from thine eye, and then it will appear to thee how to put 
forth the mote from thy brother's eye. For there is no good tree 
that bringeth forth evil fruits, nor an evil tree that bringeth forth 
good fruits. Every tree from its fruits is known ; they do not pick 
from thorns figs, nor from bushes do they gather in grapes. *The 
good man from the good treasures in his heart bringeth forth

that which I say to you ye do not? For every one that cometh unto 
me and heareth my words and doeth them, I will shew you what he 
is like :—to a man that built a house and digged and went deep and 
laid the foundation on the rock ; and when the floods were owé and 
the river was full they were dashed against that same house, and they 
were not able to shake it. And he who heareth and doeth not is like 
to a man that built his house on land without a foundation, and the 
river was dashed against it, and straightway cast it down, and the 
fall of that house was great.” 

And when all the words were fulfilled in the hearing of the 
people he entered Kapharnahum. And the slave of a certain 
centurion was ill, and he was dear to his lord ; and he was near to 
die. And he heard of Jesus and sent unto him elders of the Jews, 
and was beseeching him that he should come and save his slave alive. 
And they came unto Jesus and were beseeching him carefully and 
saying: “He is worthy that thou shouldest do for him this, for he 
loveth our people and a synagogue also he hath built for us.” And 
Jesus was going with them. Now when he was near, a little way 
from the house, lo, that centurion despatched unto him his friends and 
sent word to him: “My Lord, do not trouble, for I am not worthy 
that thou shouldest enter under my dwelling ; but say with a word 
and my lad will be healed. For I also am a man that am subject 
under authority, and there are under my hand soldiers ; and I say to 
this one ‘Go, and he goeth, and to another ‘Come,’ and he cometh, 
and to my slave ‘Do this, and he doeth 76.7 And when Jesus 
heard he wondered at him, and he turned_round and said to that 
multitude that was coming after him: “I say to you, that not even 
in the House of Israel have I found aught like this faith.’ And they 
that were sent returned and found that slave whole. And afterwards 
they went to a city whose name was Nain, and his disciples were 
going with him and a great multitude. He drew near to the gate of 
the city, [and saw folk accompanying a dead man, who] was [the only 
son] of his mother, and she was a widow. And there was with her a

compassion on her and said to her: “Weep not.” And he himself 
went and touched the bier, and they that were carrying 76 stood 7 
Saith he: “Youth, to thee I say Arise!” And the dead lifted 
himself up and sat and began to speak, and he gave him to his 
mother. And fear took hold of them all, and they glorified God and 
say “A great prophet hath arisen among us, and God hath visited 
his people.” And this went forth concerning him in all the land of 
Judaea and in all the country round about them. 

And [his disciples] declared to [John all these things]. And John 
called two of his disciples and sent unto Jesus and said: “ Art thou 
he that cometh, or for another is it that we are waiting?” And they 
came unto him and say to him: “John the Baptist sent us unto thee 
and saith : ‘Art thou he that cometh, or for another is it that we are 
waiting?’” And in the same hour [many] he healed of infirmities 
and of plagues and of evil spirits, and to many blind he was giving 
that they should see. And he answered and said to them: “Go and 
say to John everything which ye have seen and which ye have 
heard—that the blind see and the lame walk and the lepers are 
cleansed and the deaf [hear and] the poor [are * * and] the 
dead [arise. And happy is it] for him that shall not be offended in 
me.” And when the disciples of John went he began to say to the 
multitudes concerning John: “What went ye forth to see?—a reed

what went ye forth to see?—a prophet? Yea, I say to you, one that is 
more than the prophets. This is he of whom it is written ‘Lo, I send 
my messenger before thy countenance, and he shall prepare a way 
before thee’ Isay to you There hath not arisen among them that 
are born of women a prophet greater than John [the Baptist, but he 
that is little in the kingdom of] God is greater than he. And all 
the people and the toll-gatherers that heard justified themselves to 
God in that they were baptized with the baptism of John ; but the 
scribes and the Pharisees defrauded in themselves the will of God in 
that they did not receive baptism from him. To whom therefore shall 
I liken the folk of this generation, and to what are they like? They 
are like to children that sit in the street and send word to their 
fellows: ‘We have sung to you and ye have not danced, and we have 
wailed to you and ye have not wept.’ For there came unto you John 
the Baptist not | Seating nor drinking; ye say: ‘A devil in him.’ 
And there came the son of a man eating and drinking ; ye say: ‘Lo, 


a man who 78 an eater and a drunkard and a friend of toll-gatherers 


5 and of sinners!’ And wisdom hath been justified from her sons.” 


And there came a certain Pharisee beseeching him that he would 
dine at his house. And he entered the house of that Pharisee ; and 
when he sat down to meat, there was a certain woman, a sinner, in 
that city,—when she knew that in the house of that Pharisee he was 
sitting at meat, she took a vase of oil of sweet smell and stood up 
behind him at his feet and was weeping, and with her tears his feet 
she moistened and with the hair of her head she was wiping them, 
and she was kissing his feet and was anointing them with that oil. 
Now when that Pharisee who had bidden him saw ¢é he thought in 
himself and said: “This man, if he were a prophet, would know who 
she is, or what the tale 78 of that woman, the sinner, that hath 
touched him.” Jesus saith to him: “Simon, I have something that I 





33 in] pr. is S 34 the son of a man] see on Matt xii 40, Lk xxii 48 
35 her sons] pr. all S 36 at his house] with him S and when] 
om. and 0 37 when] pr. and S 39 or] and S For the whole 
verse, of 75: ‘This man, if he were a prophet, how knew he not of what 
manner of works this woman is, that is, that she is a sinner?’

would say to thee.” He saith to him: “Say 76 Rabbi.” Jesus saith 
to him: “Two debtors there were to a certain creditor; one was 
indebted to him five hundred denars and one fifty denars, and when 
they had not aught to repay he forgave them both. Which of them 
will be loving to him the more?” Simon saith to him: “TI suppose 
him whom more was forgiven to.” Jesus saith to him: “Well hast 
thou judged.” And he turned round unto the woman and said to 
Simon: “Seest thou this woman? Thy house I entered—water for 
my feet thou gavest me not, but she with her tears my feet hath 
moistened and with the hair of her head hath wiped them. Thou 
didst not kiss me, but she since I entered hath not ceased my feet to 
kiss. Thou didst not anoint me, but she with oil of sweet smell hath 
anointed my feet. Therefore I say to thee: Her many sins are 
forgiven her, because much she hath been loving. For he that little 
hath been forgiven to, little is he loving.” Saith he to her, to that 
woman, “Thy sins are forgiven thee.” And they that were sitting 
at meat began saying in themselves: “Who is this that forgiveth 
sins also?” And he saith to that woman: “Thy faith hath saved thee 
alive ; go in peace.” 

And after these things he was going about in the villages and in 
the cities and announcing the kingdom of God, his Twelve also with 
him, and these women that had been healed from evil spirits and from 
infirmities—Mary called Magdalene from whom seven devils he had 
cast out, and Johan wife of Kuza the agent of Herod, and Susan, 


and many others that were serving them from that which they had.

And when there was gathered together a great multitude and 
they that from the cities were coming unto him, he saith to them in 
similitudes : ‘Lo, the sower went forth to sow ; and when he sowed 
some fell by the way-side and was trodden upon, and the birds ate it. 
And other fell on the rock, and because it had no moisture it failed 
and withered. Other fell among the thorns, and they sprang up with 
it and choked it. And other fell in the good land and fruitful, and 
sprang up and gave fruit an hundredfold.” And when he said these 
things, with a loud voice he was saying “He that hath ears that he 
should hear, let him hear.” 

And his disciples had asked him: “What is this similitude?” Saith 
he to them: “To you is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of 
God, but to those without—it is not given to them to know. There- 
fore in parables it is said to them, that though they see they may not 
see, and though they hear they may not understand. Now this 
similitude is as follows: the seed is the word of God; and they by 
the way-side--these are they that hear the word of God, and the 
enemy cometh and taketh it away, even the word, from their heart, 
that they should not believe and live. And that on the rock—-these 
be they that what time they have heard the word quickly with joy 
receive it, and they have no root in it; and for a time they believe 
and in time of temptation they are offended. And that which fell 
among thorns—these are they that hear the word, and are in anxiety,

have heard the word and taken hold, and they give fruit in patience.” 

Another similitude he was saying : “'No one lighteth a lamp and 
hideth it in a vessel or setteth it under a bed or in a concealed place, 
but he setteth it upon the lamp-stand that every man that entereth 
may see its light.1 For there is nothing secret that shall not be 
revealed, neither aught concealed that shall not be known and come 
into the open. See what ye have heard ; for he that hath, it shall be 
given to him and added to him, and he which hath not, even that 
which he was supposing that he hath shall be taken away from him.” 

And there had come unto him, even Jesus, his mother and his 
brothers, and they were standing outside, and could not see him 
because of the multitude of folk. And they said to him: “Thy 
mother and thy brothers are standing outside and wishing to see 
thee.” Now he answered and said to them: “These are my mother 
and my brothers, that hear the word of God and do it!” 

And it had come to pass on one of those days Jesus went up and 
sat in the boat, he and his disciples with him, and he said to them : 
“Let us cross over to that other side of the lake.’ And when they

wind on the lake, and their boat was filled by the waves and it was 
near to sink. And they came near and awoke him and say to him: 
“Our Lord, we are perishing!” And he arose and rebuked the wind 


5 and the storm of the water, and there was a calm; and he said 


to them: “Where is your faith?” But they, being afraid, were 
wondering and saying one to another: “Who then is this, that even 
the winds and the sea he commandeth and they obey him ?” 

And they had sailed to the country of the Gadarenes, which is 
opposite the other side of Galilee. Now when he went forth to the 
land there met him a certain man on whom there had been a devil a 
long time, and with no garments was he clothed and in no house was 
he dwelling but in a tomb, and always with cries he was crying out 
and was smiting himself with stones. And when he saw Jesus he 
cried out and fell ad worshipped him, and with a loud voice said : 
“What have I to do with thee, Jesus, son of the Most High God? I 
beseech thee, torment me not.” For he was commanding that unclean 
spirit to come forth from the man. For a long time had he been 
cleaving to him, and he used to be bound with chains and with 
shackles that he might be kept, and he used to break his bonds and 
cut them, and was driven by that same devil to the desert. Now 
Jesus asked him and said: “What is thy name?” And he saith to 
him: “Legion, because we are many in him.” And those devils 
were beseeching him that he would not send them to Gehenna and 
not cast them out. Now there was there in the hill a certain herd of 
many swine that were feeding there, and those devils were beseeching 
him that he would permit them to enter into that herd of swine.

And he permitted them ; and the devils went forth from that man 
and entered into the swine, and all that herd went direct to a steep 
place and they fell into the sea and were choked. Now when those 


herdsmen saw that which came to pass they fled, and they declared 


5 it in the cities and in the villages. And the folk came forth that they 


might see that which had come to pass, and they came unto Jesus and 
found that man from whom went forth those devils clad and modest 
and sitting at the feet of Jesus, and they were afraid. And they 
declared to them how that man was saved alive, and theyt that saw, 
again,+ were beseeching him, even all that multitude of the Gadarenes, 
that he would go away from their neighbourhood, because great 
fear had taken hold of them. Now he went up to the boat and returned 
from them. Now that man from whom had gone forth those devils 
was beseeching him that he might be with him. And Jesus dismissed 
him and said to him: “ Return to thy house and to the house of thy 
kinsfolk, and declare to them what things the Lorp hath done for 
thee.” And he was going and was preaching in all the city that 
which Jesus did for him. And when Jesus returned a great multitude 
received him, for for him they were looking. 

And there came a certain man—Jofrash his name was, and he 
was a chief of the synagogue—and he fell down before the feet of 
Jesus and was beseeching him that he would enter his house ; for an 
only daughter he had, and she was about twelve years old, and she 
was near to die. And as Jesus was going thither the multitude was

issuing for twelve years, and all her property she had spent upon 
physicians and could not be healed by any one—and she meditated 
in herself and saith : “Even if the garments of Jesus I should go and 
touch I should be healed.” And she drew near from behind him and 
took hold of the skirt of his garment, and the issue of her blood stood 
still. And Jesus turned round and saith : “Who is it touched me?” 
And when all of them were denying Kepha saith to him: “ Rabban, 
the multitudes are pressing upon thee and coming, and sayest thou 
‘Who is it touched me?’” Jesus saith to him: “Some one touched 
me, for I know that power hath gone forth from me.” Now when 
that woman saw that not even this escaped him, she came fearful and 
trembling and fell down and worshipped him, and she said in the 
sight of all that people for what reason she touched, and how straight- 
way she was healed +before every one she confessed}. But he said 
to her: “My daughter, thy faith hath saved thee alive; go in peace.” 
And while he spake, there came some from the house of the chief of 
the synagogue and say to him: “Thy daughter hath died; do not 
trouble the teacher.” Now when Jesus heard that thus they said, he 
saith to him: ‘“Fear not ; Sonly indeed believe, and thy daughter 
will live.’* And when he came to the house of that man he did not

and the mother of the girl. And all the folk were weeping over her 
and were lamenting. Saith Jesus to them: “ Weep ye not, for the girl 
hath not died; she is indeed sleeping.” Now they were laughing 
at him, in that they were knowing that she had died. And he took 
hold of her by her hand and called her and said to her: “SGirl, 
arise!”” And her spirit returned and straightway she arose. And 
he commanded that they should give her something to eat. And her 
parents had been astonished, and he commanded them that to no one 
they should say what happened. 

And Jesus called his Twelve and gave them power and authority 
over all spirits and devils, and to heal the infirm. And he sent them 
that they should preach the kingdom of God, and to heal. And he 
said to them: “Nothing shall ye take for yourselves for the way, no 
stick and no wallet and no bread and no silver, nor two coats shall 
ye have. And whatsoever house ye enter, there be and from thence 
go forth ; and they that do not receive you—what time ye go forth 
from that city, even the dust of your feet shake off, that it may be 
for them for a testimony.” 

And when his apostles went forth, they go about the villages and 
the cities and were announcing the gospel and healing in every place.

and he was wondering, because some folk were saying “John hath 
risen from among the dead”; and others say“ Elijah hath appeared.” 
Others say: “One of the prophets of old hath arisen from among

who is this, that I hear these things about?” And he was wishing 
that he should see him. 

And those apostles returned, and declared to him everything that 
they had done ; and he took them alone and went to a desert place. 
And when the multitudes knew they went away after him on foot, 
and he received them and was speaking with them about the kingdom 
of God, and them that had need of healing he was healing.

multitudes that they may go to these villages round about and to the

meat. And he took those five pieces of bread and two fishes, 
and he looked up to heaven and blessed God upon them, and brake 
and gave to his disciples that they should set before the multitudes. 
And all ate and were satisfied, and they took up the fragments 
that which they left over, twelve baskets full. And these folk 
that ate of that bread were about five thousand, besides women and 
children. 

And when he was alone and his disciples with him, he asked them 
and said: “What say about me the multitudes that Jam?” They 
say to him: “There are that say ‘It is John the Baptist ;’ others say 
‘It is Elijah” ” Saith he to them: “And ye, what say ye that I am?” 
Simon Kepha answered and said to him: “Thou art the Messiah.” 
And he—he rebuked them and commanded them that this to no one 
they should say. And he saith “The Son of Man is about to suffer 
much and be rejected by the elders and the scribes and the priests,

him deny himself and take up his Cross every day and come after € § 


me. For he that willeth to save his life shall lose it, and he that 
shall lose his life for my sake shall save it. For what should a man 
gain, if he should get the whole world and lack his life? For he 
that shall be ashamed of me before men and of them that are mine, 
the son of a man shall be ashamed of him what time he cometh in 
the glory of his Father and of his holy angels. Now I say to you 
truly that there are some that stand here, that shall not taste death 
until they see the kingdom of God that cometh in glory.” 

And it came to pass after these words, about eight days after, 
that he took Kepha and James and John, and they went up to the 
hill to pray. And while praying, the appearance of his face was 
transfigured and his garments become white and were glistening as 
the snow. And lo, two men speaking with him, Moses and Elijah, that 
appeared in glory ; and they were saying about his decease that it 
was about to be accomplished in Jerusalem. And Simon Kepha and 
those with him had become heavy with much sleep, and when they 
awoke they saw his glory and those two persons that were standing 
by him. And when they began to separate from him Kepha said to 
Jesus: “Rabbi, it is well that we should be here; and we will make 
here three dwellings, for thee one and for Moses one and for Elijah 
one!” And he was not knowing what he was saying. And when he 
said these things there came a cloud and overshadowed them ; and 
when they saw these entering into the cloud they were afraid. And 
a voice was heard from that cloud, saying: “This is my son and my

found alone. And they kept silence, and in the sight of no one said 
they aught that they had seen in those days. And on that day again, 
while they were coming down from the hill, a great multitude met 
him, and a certain man from that multitude cried and said: “Teacher, 
I beseech thee, have compassion on my son! He is my only one, 
and a spirit cometh over him and of a sudden it casteth him down 
and he foameth, and scarcely doth it depart from him what time it 
hath convulsed him. And I besought thy disciples, and they could 
not heal him and cast it out.” And Jesus answered and said: “Ah 
generation crooked and without faith ! until when shall I be with you 
and endure you? Bring near to me thy son hither.” And while 
bringing him near, that devil threw him down and was making him 
wallow on the ground ; and Jesus rebuked that unclean spirit, and 
healed the lad and delivered him to his father. And all of them 
wondered at the greatness of God. And when every one was 
wondering at all that he was doing, he said to his disciples: “Set ye 
these words in your ears, for the Son of Man is about to be delivered 
into the hands of men.” And they were not recognising this word, 
because it was kept secret from them that they should not recognise 
it; and they were afraid to ask him about this same word. And 
there had entered among them this thought—who should be greatest 
among them? Now Jesus, when he knew their thoughts, took hold 
of a certain lad and made him stand by him, and said: “He that

receiveth this lad in my name, me it is he receiveth ; and he that 
receiveth me, receiveth him that sent me. For he which is least 
among you, like this lad, he is greatest.” And John answered and 
said to him: “We saw a certain man casting out devils in thy name, 
and we forbade him, on the ground that he cometh not with us after 
thee.” Jesus saith to him: “Forbid not, for he that is not against 
you is with you.” 

And it came to pass when the days of his going up were fulfilled 
he prepared his countenance to go to Jerusalem. And he had sent 
messengers before his face, and they went and entered a certain 
village of the Samaritans, that they might prepare for him ; and they 
received them not, because his countenance for Jerusalem was set 
to go. Now when his disciples James and John saw it, they said 
to him: “Our Lord, wilt thou that we say that fire come down 
from heaven and consume them?” And he turned round and he 
rebuked them, and said to them: “Ye know not of what spirit ye 
are, for the Son of Man came not to destroy lives but to save life.” 
And they went away to another village. 

And while they were going in the way, there came a certain man 
and said to him: “I will come after thee whither thou goest.” 
Jesus saith to him: “The foxes—they have dens, and the birds of 
the heaven a dwelling, but the Son of Man, he hath not where to rest 
his head.” And he said to another: “Come after me.” He saith to 


him: “My Lord, permit me first Sto go and bury my father, and I

and thou go and announce the kingdom of God.”* Another said to 
him: “T will come after thee, my Lord, but first permit me to go and 
shew zz to the sons of my house, and I will come.” Jesus saith to 
him: “No one putteth his hand on the ploughshare and looketh 
behind him, and becometh again fit for the kingdom of God.” 

And after these things he separated others also, seventy and two, 
and sent them two by two before his face to every place and city that 
he was about to go. He saith tothem: “The harvest 7s much, and the 
labourers few ; beseech ye therefore the Lord of the harvest so that 
he may send forth labourers for his harvest. Go now; lo, I send you 
as lambs among wolves! Take for yourselves no purses and no wallets 
and no shoes, and a greeting to no man in the way shall ye give. And 
whatever house first ye enter into, be saying ‘ Peace be in this house.’ 
And if there is there a son of peace, your peace shall rest upon it ; but 
if not, upon you it shall return. And in the same house be ye eating 
and drinking of their store: the labourer is worthy of his food ; and 
do not remove from one house to the next. And whatever city ye 
enter into and they receive you, eat everything that is set before you, 
and heal the sick that are therein, and be saying ‘The kingdom of 


God hath drawn nigh upon you.’ But whatever city ye enter into

‘Lo, even the dust that cleaveth to our feet we shake off; but 
nevertheless know this, that the kingdom of God hath come nigh!’ 
I say to you that for Sodom it shall be tolerable in the day of 
judgement more than for that city. 

“Woe to thee, Korazin! woe to thee, Beth Saida! for if in Tyre 
and in Sidon had happened the mighty works that have happened in 
you, then perchance in sackcloth and in ashes they had repented. 
Nevertheless for Tyre and for Sidon it shall be tolerable in the day 
of judgement rather than for you. And thou also, Kapharnahum ! 
not unto heaven shalt thou be uplifted, but unto Sheol shalt thou go 
down. He that heareth you, me it is he heareth; and he that 
defraudeth you, me it is he defraudeth ; and he that defraudeth me, 
defraudeth him that sent me; and he that heareth me, heareth him 
that sent me.” 

And those seventy that he sent had returned with joy, and they 
say: “Our Lord, even the devils are subject to us in thy name.” 
Jesus saith to them: “I have been seeing Satan, that he fell as 
lightning that falleth from heaven. Lo, I give you authority that ye 
should be treading on serpents and scorpions and all the power of 
the enemy, and nothing shall injure you. Nevertheless in this do not

Holy Spirit and said: “I give thanks to thee, Father, Lord of CS 


heaven and of earth, that thou hast kept secret these things from the 
wise and from the understanding and hast revealed them to children; 
yea, my Father, that so was the will before thee. Everything hath 
been delivered unto me from my Father, and no one knoweth who 
the Son is save the Father, neither who the Father is save the Son, 
and he to whom the Son shall be willing to reveal it.” And he 
turned round unto his disciples and said to them: “Happy is it for 
the eyes that see that which ye have seen! I say to you that many 
prophets and kings have wished that they might see that which ye 
see, and they have not seen ; and to hear that which ye hear and they 
have not heard.” And when he said these things, there drew near a 
certain teacher of law that was standing by to tempt him. He saith 
to him: “Teacher, what shall I do that I may inherit life eternal?” 
Jesus saith to him: “In the law how is it written, and how hast thou 
read?” He saith to him “Thou shalt love the Lorp thy God from 
all thy heart and from all thy power and from all thy soul and from 
all thy mind, and thy neighbour as thyself.’ Jesus saith to him: 
“Rightly hast thou said ; these things do, and thou dost live.” Now 
he was wishing to justify himself; saith he to Jesus: ‘And who is 
my neighbour?” Jesus saith to him: “A certain man was going 
down from Jerasalem to Jericho and fell into the hands of the 
robbers, and they stripped him and beat him and left him between 
dead and alive, and went away. And a certain priest chanced to 
have been coming down in that way, and he saw him and passed by 
him. And a Levite also when he arrived at that place saw him and 
passed by him. But a certain Samaritan, when he was journeying in 
that same way and had arrived by him, saw him and had compassion

onhim. And he drew nigh and bound up his wounds and poured upon 
them wine and oil, and made him ride on his ass and brought him to 
an inn and nourished him. And on the morrow of the day he paid 
out two denars and gave them to the innkeeper, and said: ‘Nourish 
him; and what time I have returned, that which it doth cost thee 
again I will repay thee.’ Which is it of these three appeareth to 
thee that he was the neighbour of him that fell into the hands of the 
robbers?” He saith to him: “He that had compassion on him.” 
Jesus saith to him: “Go, and thou also so be doing.” 

And while they were going in the way he entered a certain village, 
and a certain woman whose name was Martha received him in her 
house ; and she had a sister whose name was Mary, and she came 
and sat at the feet of our Lord and was hearing his words. Now 
Martha was occupied in much serving, and she came and saith to 
him: “My Lord, carest thou not for me, that my sister hath left me 
alone to serve? Say to her to help me.” He saith to her: “Martha, 
Martha, tmy anxiety + and perturbation for me thou hast about many 
things; but one thing is required. Mary the good part hath chosen 
for herself, and it shall not be taken away from her.” 

Now when he was praying in a certain place, after he departed a 
little from his prayer, one of his disciples said to him: “Our Lord, 
teach us to pray, as John taught his disciples.” He saith to them : 
“Whensoever ye are praying, be saying: Our Father in heaven, thy

tinual bread of every day. And forgive us our sins, and we also will 
forgive every one indebted to us. And make us not enter into 
temptation, But deliver us from the Evil One.” And Jesus said to 
them : “Which is there of you who shall have a friend, and he shall 
go unto him in the middle of the night and say to him, ‘My friend, 
let me borrow three loaves, because my friend hath come unto me 
from the way, and I have nothing to set before him’; and he will 
answer from within and say to him, ‘Do not injure me, because the 
door is shut and the children are with me in the bed, I cannot rise 
and give to thee.” I say to you If because of friendship he will not 
rise and give to him, because of his importunity he will rise, and give 
him as much as is required for him. And I also, I say to you: Ask, 
and it shall be given to you; knock, and it shall be opened to you. 
For every man that asketh receiveth, and every one that seeketh 
findeth, and every one that knocketh—it is opened to him. Now which 
of you whose son shall ask him for bread—doth he hand him a stone? 
Or if for a fish he should ask—doth he instead of a fish give him a 
serpent? And if for an egg he should ask—doth he hand him a 
scorpion? And if ye that are evil know good gifts to give to your 
sons, how much rather the Father from heaven will give a holy Spirit 
to them that ask him?” 

And it came to pass when he was casting out a devil from a deaf- 
mute, that when that devil went forth that deaf-mute spake. And

those multitudes had wondered ; and some of the Pharisees said : 
“By Beelzebub the chief of the demons this fel/ow doth cast out 
devils.” But others, tempting him, for a sign from heaven were 
asking him. Now he when he knew their meditation said to them : 
“very kingdom that shall be divided against itself shall be desolated, 
and every house that against a house is divided falleth. And if Satan 
against himself hath been divided, how will his kingdom stand, that ye 
should say that by Beelzebub I cast out devils? But if I by Beelzebub 
cast out devils from your sons, your sons—by what do they cast them 
out? Therefore they shall be for you judges. But if by the finger 
of God I cast out devils, henceforth the kingdom of God hath drawn 
nigh upon you. Now whensoever the strong man armed keepeth 
his court, in tranquillity is his property ; but if there shall come one 
that is stronger than he and shall overcome him, he will take away 
his armour which he trusted in, and his plunder also he divideth for 
himself. He that is not with me is against me, and he that gathereth 
not with me scattereth indeed. 

“The unclean spirit, what time it hath come forth from a man, 
goeth travelling about in places where there is no water, that it may 
find for itself ease; and what time it hath found none it saith: ‘I will 
return and go to my house from whence I came forth. And what 
time it hath come and found it swept and garnished, it goeth and 
taketh seven other spirits worse than itself, and they enter and dwell 
therein, and the last state of that man becometh worse than his 


first state.”

And when he said these things a certain woman from the midst 
of the multitude with a loud voice said to him: “Happy is it for the 
womb that carried thee, and for the breasts that gave thee suck !” 
Jesus saith to her: “Happy is it for them that hear the word of 
God and keep it !” 

And when the multitudes were gathering together he began to 
say : “This generation is an evil generation; a sign it seeketh and a 
sign shall not be given to it, save as Jonah was a sign to the Ninevites, 
so the Son of Man also to this generation. The queen of the South 
will stand up in judgement with this generation and will make them 
guilty, in that she came from the other sides of the earth that she 
might hear the wisdom of Solomon, and lo, a greater than Solomon is 
here! The men-folk of Nineve will stand up in judgement with this 
generation and will make it guilty, in that they repented at the 
preaching of Jonah, and lo, a greater than Jonah is here | 

“$No one lighteth a lamp and setteth it under the bushel or in a 
concealed place, but he setteth it on the lamp-stand, that they which 
enter in may see its light. For the lamp of the body is the eye: 
whensoever thine eye therefore shall be single, thy whole body also is 
light ; but if thine eye be evil, thy whole body also is dark. Be thou 
therefore wary lest the light in thee should be darkened. And if the 
light in thee is dark, thy darkness—how great it will be!”

from this same generation. 

“Woe to you, scribes, that have concealed the keys of knowledge! 
Ye yourselves have not entered, and them that are entering ye have 
hindered.” And when he was saying these things against them in the 
sight of all the people it began to be displeasing to the scribes and 
Pharisees, and they were disputing with him about many things, and 
were seeking to take hold of a pretext against him, that they might 
be able to accuse him. And when a great multitude was gathered 
unto him, so as to trample one on the other, he had begun to say to 
his disciples: “First beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is 
respect of persons. For there is nothing secret that shall not be 
revealed, nor aught concealed that shall not be known. For what 
things in the darkness ye have said in the light shall be heard, and 
that which in the inner chambers in the ears ye have whispered on 
the roofs shall be preached. 

“Now I say to you, my friends: Be ye not afraid of them that kill 
the body, and afterwards nothing are able to do. But I will shew 
you of whom ye shall be afraid ; be afraid of him who after he killeth 
hath authority to cast into Gehenna—yea, I say to you that of him it 
behoves to be afraid. Five sparrows are sold for a farthing, and not

your head are numbered by him. Be therefore not afraid, because 
ye are much more than the multitude of sparrows. Now I say to you 
Every one that shall confess me before men, the Son of Man also will 
confess him before his holy angels ; and he which denieth me before 
men, there will be a denial of him before the angels of God. And 
every one that shall say a word against the Son of Man, it shall be 
forgiven him ; but he that against the Holy Spirit shall blaspheme, it 
shall not be forgiven him. Now what time they bring you up to 
the synagogues before the ruling powers and authorities be ye not 
anxious as to how ye shall make excuse or what ye shall speak, for 
the Holy Spirit will teach you in that hour that which it behoves 
that ye should say.” 

And a certain man from that multitude said to him: “Teacher, 
say to my brother that he should divide with me the land and the 
inheritance.” But he said to him: “Man, who set me up over you 
to bea judge?” And he said to the multitudes: “Beware ye of all 
covetousness ; because not in the superfluity of much wealth is life 
to the sons of men.” 

And he was saying this similitude unto them: “A certain rich 
man—his land had brought in to him much produce. And he was 
thinking in himself and said, ‘What shall I do, in that I have 
not where that I may store my produce? I will pull down my 
granaries and build and enlarge them, and I will gather in them 


my produce. -$And he-saith to his soul ‘Lo, many good things are

laid up for thee for many years ; take thine ease and eat and drink 
and be merry. God saith to him: ‘Thou lacking in mind! lo, in 
this night thy life they require of thee; these things that thou hast 
made ready—whose will they be?’ So is he which layeth up for 
himself treasures and in God is not rich.” 

And he said to his disciples: “Therefore I say to you, Be not 
anxious for your life what ye shall eat, neither for the body where- 
with ye shall be clothed; for the life is more than the food and 
the body than the clothing. Consider the ravens that they sow 
not nor reap, and have no store-chambers, nor granaries—and 
God nourisheth them; how much therefore are ye more than 
they! For which of you, though anxious, can add on to his 
stature one cubit? But if not even a little thing ye can do, why 
are ye anxious about the rest? Consider the lilies of the plain 
how they spin not nor weave, and I say to you that not even 
Solomon in all his glory was covered like them. But if the grass 
of the hills that to-day is on the hills and to-morrow is withered 
and falleth into the furnace God doth clothe, how much rather there- 
fore for you, O lacking in faith? Do not therefore seek what ye 
shall eat and what ye shall drink and wherewith ye shall be 
covered, and be occupied in these things; for all these things the 


peoples of the earth seek after, but your Father knoweth that for

is the one in authority faithful and wise and good that his lord will 
set up over his slaves, that he may give them their ration of food in 
its time? Happy is it for that slave when his lord shall come and 
find him doing so! Truly I say to you that he will set him up over 
all his property. But if that slave shall say in his heart ‘My lord 
delayeth to come,’ and he begin to beat those slaves and the maid- 
servants and to eat and drink and be drunken, then the lord of that 
slave will come in a day that he doth not expect and in an hour that 
he doth not know, and will divide him and set his portion with them 
that are not faithful. The slave that knoweth the will of his lord 
and prepared not for him according to his will shall be flogged with 
many stripes, and he which knoweth not and doeth that which is 
worthy of stripes shall be flogged with few stripes; for every one to 
whom much shall be given, much will be required at his hand, and 
to him that they have committed much, the more will they require of 
him. For a fire I have come to lay in the earth, and how I would, if 
already it had been kindled! And a baptism I have that I should 
be baptized with, and how much I am in a strait until it be brought 
to anend! Suppose ye that tranquillity I have come to make in the 
earth? Isay to you Nay, but divisions. For from now there will 
be five in one house—they will be divided three against two, and two

against his father, the wife against her daughter and the daughter 
against her mother, and the mother-in-law against her bride and the 
bride against her mother-in-law.” 

And he was saying to the multitudes: “What time ye have seen 
a cloud coming up from the west, ye say ‘Rain is coming’; and it 
is so. And what time the south wind bloweth, ye say ‘A sirocco is 
coming’; and so it is. Respecters of persons! the countenance of 
the heaven and of the earth ye know how to prove ; this time and 
its signs do ye not observe? And in yourselves ye judge not verity. 
What t2me thou goest with thy adversary unto the ruler, while yet 
with him thou art in the way give him his profit that thou mayest 
be quit of him, lest he make thee guilty before the judge, and the 
judge deliver thee up to the officer, and the officer cast thee into 
prison. I say to thee Thou wilt not go forth from thence, till 
thou repay the last mite.” 

And in that same time there came some folk and said to him 
about the Galileans—those whose blood Pilate mingled with their 
sacrifices. Jesus answered and said to them: “Suppose ye that 
these Galileans were sinners more than all the Galileans, that thus it 
chanced to them? I say to you Nay; but ye also, if ye will not 
repent, thus will ye perish all of you. And those eighteen on whom 
fell the tower in Shiloah and killed them, suppose ye that they were

you Nay; but ye yourselves also, if ye will not repent, thus will ye 
perish.” 

And he was saying this similitude: “A certain man, he had a 
fig-tree in his vineyard, and he came and sought on it fruit and 
found none. He saith to the husbandman : ‘Lo, £ 78 three years, 
lo, since I have been coming and seeking on it fruit, on this fig-tree, 
and I find none; cut it down, wherefore doth it cumber the ground?’ 
That husbandman saith to him : ‘My lord, suffer it this year also, till 
I shall have tilled it and dunged it: and if it hath brought forth 
fruit, well ; and if not, next season thou shalt cut it down, ” 

And when he was teaching on the sabbaths in one of the 
synagogues, there was there a certain woman that had had a spirit 
eighteen years, and she was bowed and could not stretch herself out 
at all, and Jesus saw her and he called her and said to her : “Woman, 
thou art loosed from thy infirmity.” And he laid his hands on her, 
and straightway her stature was stretched out; and she was 
glorifying God. And the chief of the synagogue answered, being 
made furious for that Jesus was healing on the sabbath, and said to 
the multitudes : “Six are the days in which it is fitting to work ; in 
them be coming and being healed, and not on the sabbath-day.” 
Jesus answered and said to him: “ Respecter of persons! Each one 
of you—doth he not loose his ox or his ass from the manger on the 
sabbath-day, and go and give him to drink? Now this woman, that 


is a daughter of Abraham, whom the Accuser hath bound, lo,

bond on the sabbath-day?” And when these things he was saying, 
all they that were standing up against him were confused, and all 
the people were rejoicing at all the marvels that were coming to pass 
by his hand. 

And he was saying: “To what is the kingdom of God like, and 
to what shall I liken it? It is like to a grain of mustard, that a man 
took and cast it in his garden, and it grew up and became a tree, 
and the birds of the heaven nested in its branches.” 

Again he saith: “To what shall I liken the kingdom of God? 
It is like to leaven that a woman took and hid in three bushels of 
meal until the whole should be leavened.” And he was journeying 
through the villages and the cities, and was teaching. 

And while going to Jerusalem one came and was asking him and 
saying: “My Lord, are they few that live?” Jesus saith to him: 
“Fight thow to enter by the strait gate; for I say toyou Many will 
wish to enter and will not be able. From the hour that the master of 
the house shall arise and shall shut the gate, and ye be standing 
outside and knocking at the gate, and saying ‘Our Lord, our Lord, 
open to us,’ he will answer and say to you ‘I know you not whence 
ye are.’ Then ye will begin to say : ‘ Before thee we have eaten and

ye from me, for ye are all workers of falsehood.’ There shall be the 
weeping and the gnashing of teeth, when ye shall see Abraham and 
Isaac and Jacob and all the prophets in the kingdom of God, and ye 
shall be cast out. And they shall come from the east and from the west 
and from the south and from the north, and shall sit down to meat in the 
kingdom of God. And there are last that shall be first, and first last.” 

And in those same days there drew near some of the Pharisees 
and say to him: “Go forth, go away hence, because Herod wisheth 
to kill thee.” He saith to them: “Go, say ye to him, to this fox, ‘Lo, 
I am casting out devils and my cure I finish to-day and to-morrow, 
and the third day I am myself finished. Nevertheless it behoves me 
that to-day and to-morrow and the day after to-morrow I should 
journey, because it cannot be that a prophet perish outside Jeru- 
salem!’ Jerusalem, Jerusalem, that killest the prophets and stonest 
them that were sent unto thee, how many times have I wished to 
gather thy sons as the hen that gathereth her young under her 
pinions—and ye would not! Lo, your house is left to you desolate. 
Isay to you Ye shall not see me until the day come that ye shall 
say ‘Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lorn.” And 
when he entered the house of one of the chiefs of the Pharisees to 
eat bread on the sabbath-day, they were keeping watch that they 
might see what he would do. And a certain man with the dropsy 
there was before him. Jesus answered and said to the scribes and to 


the Pharisees, asking “Whether it be lawful to heal on the sabbath,

healed him and dismissed him, and he said to them: “Which is 
there of you whose son or whose ox or whose ass shall fall into a 
well on the sabbath-day, and he doth not immediately draw and take 
him up?” And they could not give him an answer about these 
things. 

And he had said this similitude unto those that were bidden and 
were choosing the chief place at entertainments. He said to them: 
“Whensoever thou art bidden to a wedding, do not go and sit down 
to meat in the honourable place ; that there be not there one who is 
more honourable than thou, and he come that hath bidden thee and 
him and say to thee ‘Give place to this one,’ and then ashamed thou 
wilt sit down to meat in the last place. But what time thou hast 
been bidden, go and sit down to meat in the last place, that what 
time he hath come which hath bidden thee he may say to thee: ‘My 
friend, come up above,’ and thou shalt have glory in the eyes of all 
the guests. ‘For every one that shall uplift himself shall be humbled, 
and every one that shall humble himself shall be uplifted.”* ‘And he

call thee and thou have repayment. But what time thou makest a 
supper, call the poor and the blind and the halt and the suffering, 
and happy is it for thee that they have not wherewith they 
may repay thee; and thy repayment shall be in the rising of the 
righteous.”™ And when one of them that were sitting at meat had 
heard these things he said to him: “Happy is it for him that shall 
eat breakfast in the kingdom of God!” Our Lord saith to him: 
“A certain man had made a great supper and called many, and 
he sent his slave at the season of the entertainment that he might 
say to those bidden that they should come, ‘for lo, quoth he, 
‘everything is ready.’ And they had begun immediately to excuse 
themselves. The first saith to him: ‘A field have I bought, and I 
need to go forth and see it; I beseech thee, excuse me.” And 
another saith : ‘Five yoke of oxen have I bought, and I go to prove 
them; I beseech thee, excuse me.’ And a third said: ‘A wife I 
have taken; I cannot come.” And that slave came and said these 
things to his lord. Then the master of the house was wroth, and he 
said to his slave: ‘Go forth quickly to the streets and lanes of the 
city, and bring in hither the poor and the crippled and the suffering 
and the blinded’ And the slave said: ‘My lord, lo, that which thou 
didst command has been done, and still there is room at the enter- 
tainment.’ Saith the lord to his slave: ‘Go forth to the highways 


and to between the hedges and make them come in, that my house

And while multitudes were going with him he turned and said 
to them: “He that cometh unto me and hateth not his father and 
his mother and his brothers and his sisters and his wife and his 
sons—yea, himself also—a disciple he cannot become of mine. And 
he that doth not take up his Cross and come after me—a disciple he 
cannot become of mine. For which is there of you that would build 
a tower, and doth not first sit down and reckon the cost of it, if so 
be that he have wherewith to finish it? Else, if he shall lay the 
foundation and have not been able to finish, all that see ¢t will be 
mocking at him, and saying: ‘This man began to build a tower and 
was not able to finish. Or what king is there that goeth to fight 
with another king, and doth not first meditate if he be able with ten 
thousand to meet him which cometh against him with twenty thou- 
sand ; and if not, while yet he is far from the battle-field he sendeth 
ambassadors and beseecheth him for peace. So every man of you 
that doth not leave all his property—my disciple he cannot become. 
Excellent is salt; but if salt lose its savour, wherewith shall it be

And the toll-gatherers and sinners were drawing near to him that 
they might hear him, and the scribes and the Pharisees were 
murmuring and saying: “This man receiveth sinners and eateth with 
them.” He saith to them himself this similitude: “Which of you 
that hath an hundred sheep and one of them be lost, doth not leave 
the ninety and nine in the open country and go and seek that which 
was lost until he find it? And what ¢éme he hath found it, he layeth 
it on his shoulders and rejoiceth, and cometh to his house, and calleth 
his friends and his neighbours too, and saith to them: ‘Rejoice with 
me, that I have found my sheep that was lost.’ Now I say to you 
that so ‘there will be joy in heaven over one siuner that doth repent, 
more than over ninety and nine righteous for whom is not required 
repentance.1 Or ‘what woman that hath ten drachmas and she lose 
one of them, doth not light a lamp and brush the house and seek 
it carefully until she find it?7 And what ¢éme she hath found it she 
calleth her friends and her neighbours, and saith to them: ‘ Rejoice 
with me, that I have found my drachma that was lost.’ I say to you 
that so there will be joy before all the angels of God over one sinner 
that repenteth.” 

He was saying to them again: “A certain man—he had two 


sons. The younger saith to him: ‘My father, give me the inheritance

that cometh to me from thy house.’ And he divided to them all his 
property. And after a few days that younger son of his gathered 
together everything that came to him and went to a far country, and 
there he scattered his property in foods which are not fitting, because 
he was living wastefully with harlots. And when he exhausted 
everything that he had, and there was a mighty famine in that 
country, he went and attached himself to one of the men of that 
country. And he sent him to a field to tend swine, and he was 
longing to eat of those husks of the sea that the swine were eating, 
and no one was giving to him. And when he came unto himself he 
said: ‘How many hired men are now in my father’s house for 
whom bread aboundeth, and I perish here of my hunger? But I will 
arise and go unto my father and I will say to him: My father, I have 
sinned against heaven and before thee, and I am not worthy hence- 
forth that I should be called thy son ; make me as one of thy hired 
men. And he arose and came unto his father; and while yet he was 
far off his father saw him and had compassion upon him, and he 
ran and fell on his neck and kissed him. And his son said to him: 
‘My father, I have sinned against heaven and before thee, and hence- 
forth I am not worthy that I should be called thy son.’ Saith his 
father to his slaves: ‘Bring forth quickly the best robe and clothe 
him, and set a ring on his hand and provide him with shoes, and 
fetch and kill that fatted calf ; let us eat and be merry, for that this 
my son was dead and is alive, and was lost and hath been found.’ 4 
And they began to be merry. And that elder son of his was in the 
field, and when he came and drew near unto the house he heard a sound 


of singing and music. And he called one of the lads and asked him:

27 ‘What is this sound of singing I hear?’ And he saith to him: ‘Thy CS 
brother hath come, and thy father hath killed that fatted calf, for 
28 that he hath received him whole.’ And he was wroth, and was 
not willing to enter, and his father went forth and was beseeching 
29 him. He saith to him, to his father: ‘Lo, how many years I do for 
thee bondservice and I have not transgressed thy commands, and 
never one kid hast thou given to me, that I might be merry with my 
30 friends ; and this thy son, when he hath wasted thy property with 
3t harlots—thou hast slaughtered for him that fatted calf!’ He saith 
to him: ‘My son, thou at all times art with me, and everything of 
32 mine is thine ; but to be merry and to rejoice it was fitting for thee, 
for that this thy brother was a dead man and is alive, and was a lost 

man and hath been found. ” 

XVI ܐ‎ And Jesus was saying again to his disciples: “A certain rich 
man there was, and he had a steward and he was accused before him 
2 as having squandered his property. And his lord called him and 
said to him: ‘What is this that I hear about thee? Come, give a 
reckoning of thy office, for thou canst not be any more steward to 
3 me.’ That steward saith in himself: ‘What shall I do, for that my 
lord taketh away the stewardship from me. Work I cannot, and to 
4 beg Iam ashamed. I have known what I shall do, that what time I 
have gone forth from the stewardship they may receive me in their 
5 houses. And he sent and called one of the debtors of his lord, and 
6 he said to the first : ‘How much owest thou to my lord?’ He saith 
to him: ‘An hundred firkins of oil’ He saith to him: ‘Take thy 
7 bill and sit down quickly and write them fifty. And afterwards he

saith to another: ‘And thou, how much owest thou to my lord?’ 
He saith to him: ‘An hundred cors of wheat. He saith to him: 
‘Receive thy bill and write them eighty cors.’ And the lord praised 
the steward of wickedness in that he did wisely, for the sons of this 


world are wiser in this their generation than the sons of light. And I 


(C) ܪ‎ 


myself say to you ’Make for yourselves friends from this mammon of 54388 


wickedness, that what time it hath been exhausted they may receive 
you into their eternal dwellings.1 For he that in little is faithful 
in much also is faithful, and he that in little is wicked in much also 
is wicked. If forsooth with the mammon of wickedness ye are not 
faithful, the truth who doth entrust to you? And if with what is not 
yours ye are not faithful, your own who will give to you?" | 

“For there is no slave that can serve two lords ; else the one he 
will hate and the other he will love, or the one he will endure and 
the other he will despise : ye cannot serve God and mammon.” 

And it came to pass when the Pharisees heard all these things 
‘they were mocking at him, because they loved silver.1 He saith 
to them: “Ye are they that justify themselves in the eyes of men ; 
now God knoweth your hearts, that that which is high among men 
is filthy before God.

“A certain man that was rich was clothed in purple and fine 
garments, and every day was making merry ; and a certain poor man 
there was, whose name was Lazar, and he was lying by his door and 
was longing to fill his belly from that which was falling from the 
table of that rich man, and the dogs also were coming and licking his 
sores. ‘And it came to pass that that poor man died, and the angels 
carried him to the bosom of Abraham; and that rich man died 
and was buried and tcastt in Sheol he lifted up his eyes, being 
tormented, and he was seeing Abraham from afar and Lazar in his 
bosom. And he called and said: ‘My father Abraham, have com-

that made merry with his goods, and the end of him was in Sheol. *And 
he told of a poor man that was lying at his door, “and was desirous 
and craving that he might fill bis belly with that which was falling 
from the table (tables A*) of that rich man, and he said ‘No man was 
giving to him.’ And it saith there ‘The dogs were coming and licking 
his sores.’

that rich man died and was buried “and was lying in torment, and that poor 
man also died and the angels carried him to the bosom of Abraham.

didst receive thy good things in thy life, and likewise Lazar also his 
evil things ; and now here he taketh his ease and thou art tormented. 
And with all these same things a great gulf is set between us and 
you, that they that wish to cross over hence unto you should not be 
able, nor from there cross over unto us.’ He saith: ‘Why then I 
beseech thee, my father, that thou send him to my father’s house, for 
I have five brothers ; that he may bear witness unto them, lest they 
also come to this place of torment.’ Saith Abraham: ‘They have 
Moses and the prophets; let them hear them. He saith to him: 
‘Nay, my father Abraham, but if one from the dead should go unto 
them they would repent. He saith to him: ‘If Moses and the 
prophets they hear not, neither if one from the dead should go 
would they believe him.’ 75 

And he had said to his disciples: “It cannot be that offences 
should not come, nevertheless woe | Sto him by whose hand the 
offences come! It were profitable for him if an ass’s millstone should 
be hanged about his neck and he be sunk in the sea, rather than 
that he should offend one of these little ones. Beware in yourselves: 
‘if thy brother have sinned, rebuke him ; if he have repented, forgive 
him, And if seven times in the day he sin against thee, and seven 
times he turn round unto thee and say to thee ‘I repent,’ forgive him.’

A383 (cont.) “Abraham saith to him: ‘My son, recollect (remember A*) 
that thou didst receive thy good things in thy life, and Lazar received his 
evil things ; but to-day thou dost beseech him, and he doth not help thee 
“because a great ditch is between us and you, and from you they cannot 
come unto us nor from us unto you.’ 7116 saith to him: ‘ And inasmuch as 
it is not so, my father, I beseech thee that thou send to my father’s house, 
**for I have five brothers ; let him go and bear witness to them and they will 
not (that they may not A*) sin and come themselves also to this torment.’ 

A384 And Abraham said to him: ‘They have Moses and the prophets; 
let them hear from them.’ *He saith to him: ‘Nay, my father Abraham, 
but let one from the dead go unto them and they would repent.’ *! Abraham

The apostles say to him, to our Lord: §“ Add to us faith." He 
saith to them: “If there were in you faith as a grain of mustard, ye 
would be saying to a hill that it should remove from hence and it 
would remove, and to a mulberry-tree ‘Be rooted up and be planted 
in the sea.’ and it would obey you. Which is there of you that hath 
a slave driving the plough or tending the flock, and what teme he 
hath come in from the field doth he say to him straightway : ‘Pass 
through and sit down to meat’? But he saith to him: ‘Make ready 
for me something that I may sup, and gird thy loins and serve me 
until I shall have eaten and drunk, and afterwards thou also shalt eat 
and drink. Doth that slave hold a favour for himself that he hath 
done the things which he commanded him? So ye also, what time ye 
have done what things are commanded you, ye say: ‘We are slaves 
and riffraff; that which we were bound to do we have done. 7 

And when he was going to Jerusalem and was passing through 
between the Samaritans and the Galilaeans to Jericho, and when he 
was entering a certain city, lo, ten men, lepers, stood from afar and 
they lifted up their voice and say to him: “Jesus, Rabban, have 
compassion on us!” When he saw them he saith to them: “Go, 
shew yourselves to the priests.” And while they were going they 
were cleansed. Now one of them, when he saw that he was cleansed, 


returned and with a loud voice was glorifying God, and he fell on his

same leper was a Samaritan. Saith Jesus: “These were ten that have 
been cleansed ; the nine—where are they?” But not one of them 
hath been found that returneth to give glory to God, save this one 
that is of a strange people. He saith to him: “Go, thy faith hath 
saved thee alive.” 

And the Pharisees asked him, and say to him; “When cometh 
the kingdom of God?” He saith to them: “The kingdom of God 
cometh not by observings, and they will not say ‘Lo, here it is,’ or 
‘Lo, there it is’; for lo, the kingdom of God among you !” 

And he was saying to his disciples: “The days will come that 
ye will long to see one of the days of the Son of Man, and 
ye will not see it. And if they shall say to you ‘Lo, there he is’ 
and ‘Lo, here he is’—let them not lead you astray and do not go. 
For just as the lightning lighteneth from the uttermost parts of 
heaven even unto the ends thereof, so will be the day of the Son of 
Man. But first he is about to suffer in many things and be rejected 
by this generation. And as it was in the days of Noah, so will it be

that Noah entered the Ark, and the Flood came and took them all 


away. So also, as it was in the days of Lot, that they were eating 
and drinking and were buying and selling and were planting and 
building, and in the day that Lot went forth from Sodom it rained 
fire from heaven and destroyed them all, so will it be in the day that 
the Son of Man is revealed. Now in that hour he that is on the roof 
let him not go down that he may take up his things from the house, 
and he that is in the field let him not turn behind; and remember ye 
the wife of Lot. He that willeth to save his life shall lose it, and he 
that shall lose his life shall find it. Now I say to you that in that night 
there will be two men in one bed, one will be taken and one will be 
left ; and there will be two women grinding at one mill together, one 
will be taken and one will be left ; and there will be two men in the 
field, one will be taken and one will be left.” They say to him: 
“Whither, our Lord?” He saith to them: “ Where the body ts, there 
will be gathered together the vultures.” 

He saith to them again this similitude also, that they should be 
praying at all seasons and that it should not weary them. “ A certain 
judge there was in a certain city, that of God was not afraid and for 
men had no reverence ; and a certain widow there was in that same

afraid and for men I have no reverence, yet this widow at all times 
doth fatigue me—I will requite her, else at all times she will be com- 
ing and injuring me.’” And our Lord said: “Hear ye what saith 
the wicked judge ; God therefore—will he not rather do requital for 
his chosen that call to him by day and by night, and be lenient 
with them? I say to you that he will do their requital quickly. 
Nevertheless, will then the Son of Man come and find faith on the 
earth ?” 

And he was saying this similitude against folk that trust in them- 
selves that they are the righteous and were disdaining many. “Two 
people went up to the Temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other 
a toll-gatherer. And that Pharisee was standing by himself, and 
these things was he praying: ‘I thank thee, God, that I have not 
been as the rest of the folk, the extortioners and the wicked and the 
adulterers, and not as this toll-gatherer; but I fast twice in the week

And they had brought near to him even babes that he might bless 
them, and when his disciples saw 7 they were rebuking them. And 
he, Jesus, saith to them: “Suffer the children that they should come 
unto me and forbid them not ; for they that are such as these, theirs 
is the kingdom of heaven. Amen, I say to you He that shall not 
receive the kingdom of God as this child, he shall not enter it.” 

And one of the chiefs of the Pharisees had asked him, and saith 
to him: “Good Teacher, what shall I do that I may inherit life 
eternal?” Jesus saith to him: “Why callest thou me Good? And why 
dost thou ask me about the Good One? There is none good save 
one,—God. Now the commandments, thou knowest them: if thou 
dost wish to enter life, ‘Thou shalt not kill’ and ‘Thou shalt not com- 
mit adultery’ and ‘Thou shalt not thieve’ and ‘Thou shalt not bear 
false witness, ‘Honour thy father and thy mother.” He saith to him: 
“These all—I have kept them, lo, from when I was a child!” When 
Jesus heard, he said to him: “One thing yet is lacking to thee; sell 
everything that thou hast and give to the poor, and thou shalt have 
treasure in heaven, and come after me.” Now he when he heard 
these things, it grieved him, for exceedingly rich he was. When 
Jesus saw that it grieved him, he saith : “ How difficult it is for them 
that have wealth to enter the kingdom of God! For it is readier for 


a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than a rich man to enter

into the kingdom of God.” And they were saying that heard: “ Who 
can live?” He saith to them: “The things that with men cannot be, 
but with God they can.” Kepha saith to him: “Lo, we have left 
everything that we have and have come after thee.” Jesus saith to 
him: “Amen, I say to you He that hath left house, or parents, or 
brothers, or wife, or sons, for the kingdom of God’s sake, shall take 
an hundredfold in this time and in the world to come shall inherit 
life eternal.” 

And he took his Twelve and said to them: “Lo, we go up to 
Jerusalem, and all things are to be fulfilled that are written in the 
prophets about the Son of Man ; for he is to be delivered up to the 
peoples, and they will mock at him and insult him and spit in bis 
face and scourge him and kill him, and the third day he will rise.” 
And they not one of these things understood, but the word was kept 
secret from them and they did not recognise the things that were 
spoken with them. 

And when he was near to enter Jericho a certain blind man was 
sitting by the way-side and begging. And when he heard the sound 
of a multitude passing by he was asking “Who is this?” They 
say to him: “Jesus the Nazarene is passing by.” And he cried out 
and said: “Jesus, son of David, have compassion on me!” And they 
that were going before Jesus were rebuking him that he should be 
silent; and he the more was crying out: “Son of David, have com- 
passion on me!” And he, Jesus, stood and was commanding that 
they should bring him. And when he drew near unto him he asked 
him and said to him: “What wouldest thou I should do for thee?” 
He saith to him: “My Lord, that my eyes may be opened and I may 
see thee.” He saith to him: “See, thy faith hath saved thee alive.”

And straightway he saw, and he was coming after him and was 
glorifying God. And all the people that saw it, glorified God. 

And when thet entered and passed through Jericho a certain 
man whose name was Zacchaeus—and he was a chief of the toll- 
gatherers and was rich—and he was wishing to see Jesus and could 
not, because in his stature Zacchaeus was little. And he ran before 
him and went up a wild fig-tree that he might see him, because thus 
Jesus was passing by. And when Jesus passed by he saw him. 
Saith he: “Hasten avd come down, Zacchaeus, for to-day in thy 
house it behoves me to be.” And he hastened and came down and 
he received him gladly. And when they saw these things, all of them 
were murmuring that with a man who was a sinner he entered to 
lodge. And Zacchaeus stood and said to our Lord: §“Lo, my Lord, 
the half of my wealth I give to the poor; and all that I have 
defrauded, fourfold I repay!” Jesus saith to him: “To-day hath 
life been in this house, and this one also is a son of Abraham.” 
And he said “The Son of Man hath come that he might seek 
and save alive that which had been lost.” 

And when they were hearing these things he went on to say a

family, went to a far country to receive a kingdom and to return. 
And he called his ten slaves and gave them ten pounds and said 
to them: ‘Have use of them until I come. And the men of his city 
were hating him, Sand they sent ambassadors after him and say to 
him: ‘We would not that this man should reign over us. And when 
he received the kingdom and returned he said that they should call 
to him those slaves of his to whom he had given the silver, that he 
might know what they had traded. And the first came and saith: 
“My lord, thy pound ten pounds hath gained.” He saith to him: 
‘Well ts ?6, good slave, that in little thou hast been found faithful ; 
thou shalt be set in authority over ten towns. And the second came 
and saith to him: ‘My lord, thy pound five pounds hath made’ 
He saith to him, to that one also: ‘And thou also shalt be set in 
authority over five towns. And another came and saith: ‘Lo, thy 
pound which was with me, laid in a cloth! For I was afraid of thee, 
in that thou art a hard man that takest up that which thou didst not 
lay down, and reapest that which thou didst not sow. His lord saith to 
him: ‘From thine own mouth will I judge thee, evil slave and faith-

by him: ‘Take from him the pound, and give it to him with whom 
are the ten pounds.’ For I say to you that every man that hath, it 
shall be given to him and more shall be added to him ; and he that 
hath not, even that which he supposeth that he hath shall be taken 
from him. But nevertheless bring ye hither those enemies of mine 
which would not that I should be king over them, and kill them 
before me’” And when he said these things they went forth from 
thence. 

And when he was going up to Jerusalem and arrived at Beth 
Phagge and Beth Ania and arrived by the Mount called the Mount 
of the Olive-orchard, he sent two of his disciples, and said to them : 
“Go to that village over against us; and when ye enter, lo, ye will 
find a colt tied that no one hath ridden on, loose and bring it. And 
if any one asketh you ‘Wherefore are ye loosing it?’ say to him: 
‘For its Lord it is required?” And they went and found zé so. And 
when they asked them, they returned them the answer that for its 
Lord it is required. And they brought the colt unto Jesus and they 
cast upon it their cloaks and mounted Jesus; and while he was 
moving along they were strewing their cloaks in the way. And when 
they drew near to the descent of the Mount of the Olive-orchard all 
the multitude began rejoicing and glorifying God with a loud voice 
for everything that they saw, and they were saying: “ Blessed is the 
king that cometh in the name of the Lorp! Peace in heaven, and

multitude say to him: “Rabban, rebuke them that they should not 
cry out.” He saith to them: “Amen, I say to you If these should 
be silent these stones would cry out.” And when he drew near and 
saw the city he wept over it, and said “Even if in this day thou 
hadst then known thy peace—! But peace hath been hidden from 
thine eyes. Now the days will come that thine enemies will surround 
thee and will afflict thee on every side and will overturn thee upon 
the ground and thy children within thee, and ‘they will not leave in 
thee a stone on a stone, because thou knewest not the day of thy 
greatness ! ¶ 

And when he entered the Temple he began to put forth those 
selling in it their sale, and said: “It is written ‘My House is a 
House of Prayer for all the peoples,’ but ye have made it a den of 
robbers.” And he was teaching daily in the Temple ; and the chief 
priests and scribes and the chiefs of the people were seeking to 
destroy him, and they were not finding what they should do to him, 
for all the people were hanging on him to hear him. 

And it came to pass on one of the days, when he was teaching the 
people in the Temple and was announcing the gospel, there stood up 
against him the chief priests and the scribes of the people with the 
elders, and they say to him: “Say to us by what authority thou doest 
these things? or who is it gave thee this authority?” He saith to 
them: “I also will ask you; say to me—the baptism of John, from

to us ‘And how is it ye did not believe him?’—and if we say 
that it is from men, all the people will be stoning us, for they have 
been persuaded about John that he is a prophet.” They say to him: 
“We do not know from whence it is.” Jesus saith to them: “And 
neither do I say to you by what authority I do these things.” 

And he began to say to them this similitude: “A certain man 
planted a vineyard and let it out to husbandmen and departed for a 
long time. And at one of the times he sent his slave unto the 
husbandmen that they should give him of the fruits of the vineyard. 
And they beat him and sent him away empty. And he went on and 
sent another slave of his, and this one also they wounded and put him 
forth. Saith the master of the vineyard: ‘What shall Ido? I will 
send my beloved son; perchance they will have reverence for him.’ 
Now when the husbandmen saw him they were thinking and saying: 
‘This is the heir ; come, let us kill him and the inheritance will be 
ours. And they put him forth out of the vineyard and killed him. 
What will the lord of the vineyard do to them? He will come and 
will destroy those husbandmen, and will give the vineyard to others.” 
Now when they heard these things they say: “Far be it, and it shall 
not be!” Now he looked on them and said: “And what forsooth 
is this that is written ‘The stone that the builders rejected, it hath 
become the head of the building. For every man that shall fall on

shall crush him.” And the chief priests and scribes had sought to 
lay hands upon him in that very same hour, for they had known that 
against them he said 76; and they were afraid of the people. And 
afterwards they sent spies that they might feign being righteous, that 
they might take hold of him with a word and deliver him up to the 
governor. And they asked him and say to him: “Teacher, we know 
that rightly thou speakest and teachest, and thou hast no respect of 
persons for any one, but in verity the word of God thou teachest; is 
it lawful for us to give head-money to Caesar, or not?” And he 
himself perceived their ill-will and said to them: “Why tempt ye 
me? Shew mea denar; the image and the inscription—whose is it 
thereon?” And they shewed him and say to him: “Caesar's.” He 
saith to them: “Give what zs Caesars to Caesar, and God’s to 
God.” And they were not able to take hold of his word before the 
people, and they wondered at his answer and kept silence. 

And there drew near some folk of the Sadducees, those that say 
that there is no resurrection, and they asked him and say to him: 
“Teacher, Moses wrote for us, that if a man’s brother die not having 
sons and he leave a wife, his brother shall take his wife that he may 
raise up seed to his brother. There were seven brothers: the first 
took a wife and died without sons, and his brother took that woman ;

For lo, wife of the seven of them she became.” Jesus saith to them: 
“The sons of this world beget and are begotten, and take wives and 
become the wives of men, but they which that world have been 
worthy to receive, and that resurrection from among the dead, are 
not men taking wives, nor women becoming wives of men; nor 
can they die, for they have been made equal with the angels, as the 
sons of God, even sons of the resurrection.1 Now concerning the 
dead that they will rise Moses also hath made clear, when God 
spake with him from the Bush and said: ‘The Lorn, the God of 
Abraham and the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob’; and lo, Sthe 
God not of the dead, but of the living, for they are all living to 


him.”

8. LUKE XX, XXI 389 


Some of the scribes say to him: “Teacher, well sayest thou!” 
And not again did they dare to ask him aught. 

And he was saying to them: “How say the scribes about the 
Messiah that he is the son of David? And David himself hath said 
in the book of the Psalms ‘The Lorp said to my Lord Sit down on 
my right hand, until I lay thine enemies under thy feet.’ If therefore 
David call him ‘my Lord,’ how is he his son?” 

And while all the people were hearing he said to his disciples : 
“Beware of the scribes that wish to walk in porches, and love 
greeting in the streets and the honourable seats in the synagogues 
and the chief entertainments at suppers, and eat up the houses of 
widows in the pretext that they are lengthening their prayers—and 
they themselves shall receive the more judgement.” 

And he lifted up his eyes and saw the rich that were casting 
their offerings into the treasury; and he saw a poor widow also that 
cast in two mites. He saith: “The verity 1 say to you, that this 
poor widow hath cast in more than all of them; for these of what 
was abundant to them cast into the treasury as an offering, but this 
woman of what is lacking to her—all that she was possessing— 
cast in.” 

And when some said of the Temple that with fair stones and with 
offerings it was adorned, he saith: “See ye these? The days will 
come that there will not be left here a stone on a stone that will not 
be pulled down.” 

And they had asked him and say to him: “Teacher, when shall 
these things be, and what 78 the sign what time these things begin 
to be?” Now he said to them: “See lest ye go astray. For
